6β’1 Module Overview NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM
Grade 6 β’ Module 1
Ratios and Unit Rates
OVERVIEW In this module, students are introduced to the concepts of ratio and rate. Their previous experience solving problems involving multiplicative comparisons, such as Max has three times as many toy cars as Jack, (4.OA.A.2) serves as the conceptual foundation for understanding ratios as a multiplicative comparison of two or more numbers used in quantities or measurements (6.RP.A.1). Students develop fluidity in using multiple forms of ratio language and ratio notation. They construct viable arguments and communicate reasoning about ratio equivalence as they solve ratio problems in real-world contexts (6.RP.A.3). As the first topic comes to a close, students develop a precise definition of the value of a ratio ππ: ππ, where ππ β 0 as the value ππππ
, applying previous understanding of fraction as division (5.NF.B.3). They can then formalize their understanding of equivalent ratios as ratios having the same value. With the concept of ratio equivalence formally defined, students explore collections of equivalent ratios in real-world contexts in Topic B. They build ratio tables and study their additive and multiplicative structure (6.RP.A.3a). Students continue to apply reasoning to solve ratio problems while they explore representations of collections of equivalent ratios and relate those representations to the ratio table (6.RP.A.3). Building on their experience with number lines, students represent collections of equivalent ratios with a double number line model. They relate ratio tables to equations using the value of a ratio defined in Topic A. Finally, students expand their experience with the coordinate plane (5.G.A.1, 5.G.A.2) as they represent collections of equivalent ratios by plotting the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. The Mid-Module Assessment follows Topic B. In Topic C, students build further on their understanding of ratios and the value of a ratio as they come to understand that a ratio of 5 miles to 2 hours corresponds to a rate of 2.5 miles per hour, where the unit rate is the numerical part of the rate, 2.5, and miles per hour is the newly formed unit of measurement of the rate (6.RP.A.2). Students solve unit rate problems involving unit pricing, constant speed, and constant rates of work (6.RP.A.3b). They apply their understanding of rates to situations in the real world. Students determine unit prices, use measurement conversions to comparison shop, and decontextualize constant speed and work situations to determine outcomes. Students combine their new understanding of rate to connect and revisit concepts of converting among different-sized standard measurement units (5.MD.A.1). They then expand upon this background as they learn to manipulate and transform units when multiplying and dividing quantities (6.RP.A.3d). Topic C culminates as students interpret and model real-world scenarios through the use of unit rates and conversions. In the final topic of the module, students are introduced to percent and find percent of a quantity as a rate
per 100. Students understand that ππ percent of a quantity has the same value as ππ100
of that quantity. Students express a fraction as a percent and find a percent of a quantity in real-world contexts. Students learn to express a ratio using the language of percent and to solve percent problems by selecting from familiar representations, such as tape diagrams and double number lines or a combination of both (6.RP.A.3c). The End-of-Module Assessment follows Topic D.

6β’1 Module Overview NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM
Focus Standards Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems.
6.RP.A.1 Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For example, βThe ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2: 1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.β βFor every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.β
6.RP.A.2 Understand the concept of a unit rate ππ/ππ associated with a ratio ππ: ππ with ππ β 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, βThis recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.β βWe paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.β2
6.RP.A.3 Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.
a. Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole-number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios.
b. Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. For example, if it took 7 hours to mow 4 lawns, then at that rate, how many lawns could be mowed in 35 hours? At what rate were lawns being mowed?
c. Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent.
d. Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.
Foundational Standards Use the four operations with whole numbers to solve problems.
4.OA.A.2 Multiply or divide to solve word problems involving multiplicative comparison, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem, distinguishing multiplicative comparison from additive comparison.3
2Expectations for unit rates in this grade are limited to non-complex fractions. 3See Glossary, Table 2.

6β’1 Module Overview NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to multiply and divide fractions.
5.NF.B.3 Interpret a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator (ππ/ππ = ππ Γ· ππ). Solve word problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of fractions or mixed numbers, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem. For example, interpret 3/4 as the result of dividing 3 by 4, noting that 3/4 multiplied by 4 equals 3, and that when 3 wholes are shared equally among 4 people each person has a share of size 3/4. If 9 people want to share a 50-pound sack of rice equally by weight, how many pounds of rice should each person get? Between what two whole numbers does your answer lie?
Convert like measurement units within a given measurement system.
5.MD.A.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems.
Graph points on the coordinate plane to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
5.G.A.1 Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to define a coordinate system, with the intersection of the lines (the origin) arranged to coincide with the 0 on each line and a given point in the plane located by using an ordered pair of numbers, called its coordinates. Understand that the first number indicates how far to travel from the origin in the direction of one axis, and the second number indicates how far to travel in the direction of the second axis, with the convention that the names of the two axes and the coordinates correspond (e.g., π₯π₯-axis and π₯π₯-coordinate, π¦π¦-axis and π¦π¦-coordinate).
5.G.A.2 Represent real world and mathematical problems by graphing points in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane, and interpret coordinate values of points in the context of the situation.
Focus Standards for Mathematical Practice MP.1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Students make sense of and solve
real-world and mathematical ratio, rate, and percent problems using representations, such as tape diagrams, ratio tables, the coordinate plane, and double number line diagrams. They identify and explain the correspondences between the verbal descriptions and their representations and articulate how the representation depicts the relationship of the quantities in the problem. Problems include ratio problems involving the comparison of three quantities, multi-step changing ratio problems, using a given ratio to find associated ratios, and constant rate problems including two or more people or machines working together.
MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Students solve problems by analyzing and comparing ratios and unit rates given in tables, equations, and graphs. Students decontextualize a given constant speed situation, representing symbolically the quantities involved with the formula, distance = rate Γ time.

MP.5 Use appropriate tools strategically. Students become proficient using a variety of representations that are useful in reasoning with rate and ratio problems, such as tape diagrams, double line diagrams, ratio tables, a coordinate plane, and equations. They then use judgment in selecting appropriate tools as they solve ratio and rate problems.
MP.6 Attend to precision. Students define and distinguish between ratio, the value of a ratio, a unit rate, a rate unit, and a rate. Students use precise language and symbols to describe ratios and rates. Students learn and apply the precise definition of percent.
MP.7 Look for and make use of structure. Students recognize the structure of equivalent ratios in solving word problems using tape diagrams. Students identify the structure of a ratio table and use it to find missing values in the table. Students make use of the structure of division and ratios to model 5 miles/2 hours as a quantity 2.5 mph.
Terminology New or Recently Introduced Terms
Equivalent Ratios (Two ratios π΄π΄:π΅π΅ and πΆπΆ:π·π· are equivalent ratios if there is a nonzero number ππ such that πΆπΆ = πππ΄π΄ and π·π· = πππ΅π΅. For example, two ratios are equivalent if they both have values that are equal.)
Measurement of a Quantity (A measurement of a quantity is a representation of that quantity as a multiple of a unit of measurement. The multiple is a number called the measure of the quantity. Examples include 3 inches or 5 liters or 7 boys with measures 3, 5, and 7, respectively.)
Percent (One percent is the number 1100
and is written 1%. Percentages can be used as rates. For
example, 30% of a quantity means 30100
times the quantity.)
Quantity (illustration) (Examples of a quantity include a length, an area, a volume, a mass, a weight, a length of time, or a speed. It is an instance of a type of quantity.) All quantities of the same type have the properties that (1) two quantities can be compared, (2) two quantities can be combined to get a new quantity of that same type, and (3) there .always exists a quantity that is a multiple of any given quantity. These properties help define ways to measure quantities using a standard quantity called a unit of measurement.)
Rate (illustration) (A rate is a quantity that describes a ratio relationship between two types of quantities. For example, 1.25 miles
hour is a rate that describes a ratio relationship between hours and
miles: If an object is traveling at a constant 1.25 mileshour , then after 1 hour it has gone 1.25 miles, after
2 hours it has gone 2.50 miles, after 3 hours it has gone 3.75 miles, and so on. Rates differ from ratios in how they describe ratio relationshipsβrates are quantities and have the properties of quantities. For example, rates of the same type can be added together to get a new rate, as in 30 miles
hour + 20 mileshour = 50 miles
hour , whereas ratios cannot be added together.)

Ratio (A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers which are not both zero. A ratio is denoted π΄π΄:π΅π΅ to indicate the order of the numbersβthe number π΄π΄ is first and the number π΅π΅ is second.)
Ratio Relationship (A ratio relationship is the set of all ratios that are equivalent ratios. A ratio such as 5: 4 can be used to describe the ratio relationship {1: 4
5 , 54 : 1, 5: 4, 10: 8, 15: 12, β¦ }. Ratio
language such as β5 miles for every 4 hoursβ can also be used to describe a ratio relationship. Ratio relationships are often represented by ratio tables, double number lines diagrams, and by equations and their graphs.)
Type of Quantity (illustration) (Examples of types of quantities include lengths, areas, volumes, masses, weights, time, and (later) speeds.)
Unit of Measurement (A unit of measurement is a choice of a quantity for a given type of quantity. Examples include 1 cm, 1 m, or 1 in. for lengths, 1 liter or 1 cm3 for volumes, etc. But the choice could be arbitrary as well, such as the length between the vertical bars: |------------------|.)
Unit Rate (When a rate is written as a measurement (i.e., a number times a unit), the unit rate is the measure (i.e., the numerical part of the measurement). For example, when the rate of speed of an object is written as the measurement 1.25 mph, the number 1.25 is the unit rate.)
Value of a Ratio (The value of the ratio π΄π΄:π΅π΅ is the quotient π΄π΄π΅π΅
as long as π΅π΅ is not zero.)

Preparing to Teach a Module Preparation of lessons will be more effective and efficient if there has been an adequate analysis of the module first. Each module in A Story of Ratios can be compared to a chapter in a book. How is the module moving the plot, the mathematics, forward? What new learning is taking place? How are the topics and objectives building on one another? The following is a suggested process for preparing to teach a module. Step 1: Get a preview of the plot.
A: Read the Table of Contents. At a high level, what is the plot of the module? How does the story develop across the topics?
B: Preview the moduleβs Exit Tickets to see the trajectory of the moduleβs mathematics and the nature of the work students are expected to be able to do.
Note: When studying a PDF file, enter βExit Ticketβ into the search feature to navigate from one Exit Ticket to the next.
Step 2: Dig into the details.
A: Dig into a careful reading of the Module Overview. While reading the narrative, liberally reference the lessons and Topic Overviews to clarify the meaning of the textβthe lessons demonstrate the strategies, show how to use the models, clarify vocabulary, and build understanding of concepts.
B: Having thoroughly investigated the Module Overview, read through the Student Outcomes of each lesson (in order) to further discern the plot of the module. How do the topics flow and tell a coherent story? How do the outcomes move students to new understandings?
Step 3: Summarize the story.
Complete the Mid- and End-of-Module Assessments. Use the strategies and models presented in the module to explain the thinking involved. Again, liberally reference the lessons to anticipate how students who are learning with the curriculum might respond.

Preparing to Teach a Lesson A three-step process is suggested to prepare a lesson. It is understood that at times teachers may need to make adjustments (customizations) to lessons to fit the time constraints and unique needs of their students. The recommended planning process is outlined below. Note: The ladder of Step 2 is a metaphor for the teaching sequence. The sequence can be seen not only at the macro level in the role that this lesson plays in the overall story, but also at the lesson level, where each rung in the ladder represents the next step in understanding or the next skill needed to reach the objective. To reach the objective, or the top of the ladder, all students must be able to access the first rung and each successive rung. Step 1: Discern the plot.
A: Briefly review the moduleβs Table of Contents, recalling the overall story of the module and analyzing the role of this lesson in the module.
B: Read the Topic Overview related to the lesson, and then review the Student Outcome(s) and Exit Ticket of each lesson in the topic.
C: Review the assessment following the topic, keeping in mind that assessments can be found midway through the module and at the end of the module.
Step 2: Find the ladder.
A: Work through the lesson, answering and completing each question, example, exercise, and challenge.
B: Analyze and write notes on the new complexities or new concepts introduced with each question or problem posed; these notes on the sequence of new complexities and concepts are the rungs of the ladder.
C: Anticipate where students might struggle, and write a note about the potential cause of the struggle.
D: Answer the Closing questions, always anticipating how students will respond.
Step 3: Hone the lesson.
Lessons may need to be customized if the class period is not long enough to do all of what is presented and/or if students lack prerequisite skills and understanding to move through the entire lesson in the time allotted. A suggestion for customizing the lesson is to first decide upon and designate each question, example, exercise, or challenge as either βMust Doβ or βCould Do.β A: Select βMust Doβ dialogue, questions, and problems that meet the Student Outcome(s) while still
providing a coherent experience for students; reference the ladder. The expectation should be that the majority of the class will be able to complete the βMust Doβ portions of the lesson within the allocated time. While choosing the βMust Doβ portions of the lesson, keep in mind the need for a balance of dialogue and conceptual questioning, application problems, and abstract problems, and a balance between students using pictorial/graphical representations and abstract representations. Highlight dialogue to be included in the delivery of instruction so that students have a chance to articulate and consolidate understanding as they move through the lesson.

B: βMust Doβ portions might also include remedial work as necessary for the whole class, a small group, or individual students. Depending on the anticipated difficulties, the remedial work might take on different forms as suggested in the chart below.
Anticipated Difficulty βMust Doβ Remedial Problem Suggestion
The first problem of the lesson is too challenging.
Write a short sequence of problems on the board that provides a ladder to Problem 1. Direct students to complete those first problems to empower them to begin the lesson.
There is too big of a jump in complexity between two problems.
Provide a problem or set of problems that bridge student understanding from one problem to the next.
Students lack fluency or foundational skills necessary for the lesson.
Before beginning the lesson, do a quick, engaging fluency exercise, such as a Rapid White Board Exchange or Sprint. Before beginning any fluency activity for the first time, assess that students have conceptual understanding of the problems in the set and that they are poised for success with the easiest problem in the set.
More work is needed at the concrete or pictorial level.
Provide manipulatives or the opportunity to draw solution strategies.
More work is needed at the abstract level.
Add a White Board Exchange of abstract problems to be completed toward the end of the lesson.
C: βCould Doβ problems are for students who work with greater fluency and understanding and can, therefore, complete more work within a given time frame.
D: At times, a particularly complex problem might be designated as a βChallenge!β problem to provide to advanced students. Consider creating the opportunity for students to share their βChallenge!β solutions with the class at a weekly session or on video.
E: If the lesson is customized, be sure to carefully select Closing questions that reflect such decisions and adjust the Exit Ticket if necessary.

6β’1 Topic A NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM
The complexity of problems increases as students are challenged to find values of quantities in a ratio given the total desired quantity or given the difference between the two quantities. For example, If the ratio of boys to girls in the school is 2: 3, find the number of girls if there are 300 more girls than boys. As the first topic comes to a close, students develop a precise definition of the value of a ratio ππ:ππ, where ππ β 0, as the value
ππππ
, applying previous understanding of fraction as division (5.NF.B.3). Students are then challenged to express their understanding of ratio equivalence using the newly defined term, value of a ratio. They conclude that equivalent ratios are ratios having the same value.

NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM 6β’1 Lesson 1
Lesson 1: Ratios
Student Outcomes
Students understand that a ratio is an ordered pair of numbers which are not both zero. Students understand that a ratio is often used instead of describing the first number as a multiple of the second.
Students use the precise language and notation of ratios (e.g., 3: 2, 3 to 2). Students understand that the order of the pair of numbers in a ratio matters and that the description of the ratio relationship determines the correct order of the numbers. Students conceive of real-world contextual situations to match a given ratio.
Lesson Notes The first two lessons of this module develop studentsβ understanding of the term ratio. A ratio is always a pair of numbers, such as 2: 3, and never a pair of quantities such as 2 cm: 3 sec. Keeping this straight for students requires teachers to use the term ratio correctly and consistently. Students are required to separately keep track of the units in a word problem. We refer to statements about quantities in word problems that define ratios as ratio language or ratio relationship descriptions. Typical examples of ratio relationship descriptions include 3 cups to 4 cups and 5 miles in 4 hours. The ratios for these ratio relationships are 3: 4 and 5: 4, respectively.
Tape diagrams may be unfamiliar to students. Making a clear connection between multiplicative comparisons and their representation with tape diagrams is essential to student understanding of ratios in this module. Creating and delivering brief opening exercises that demonstrate the use of tape diagrams, as well as providing fluency activities, such as Rapid Whiteboard Exchanges (RWBE), is highly suggested throughout the module. Students bridge their knowledge of multiplicative comparisons to ratio relationships in this lesson and through the rest of the module. An example of a connection between multiplicative comparisons and ratios is as follows:
Cameron has 5 shirts and 1 baseball cap. The multiplicative comparison is Cameron has 5 times as many shirts as he has baseball caps. This can be represented with a tape diagram:
Shirts
Baseball Caps
Students are asked to determine the ratio relationship of the number of shirts Cameron has to the number of baseball caps he has. Using the tape diagram above, students see that for every 5 shirts Cameron has, he has 1 baseball cap, or the ratio of the number of shirts Cameron has to the number of baseball caps he has is 5: 1.

Classwork
Example 1 (15 minutes)
Read the example aloud.
Example 1
The coed soccer team has four times as many boys on it as it has girls. We say the ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls on the team is ππ:ππ. We read this as four to one.
Letβs create a table to show how many boys and how many girls could be on the team.
Create a table like the one shown below to show possibilities of the number of boys and girls on the soccer team. Have students copy the table into their student materials.
# of Boys # of Girls Total # of Players
4 1 5
So, we would have four boys and one girl on the team for a total of five players. Is this big enough for a team?
Adult teams require 11 players, but youth teams may have fewer. There is no right or wrong answer; just encourage reflection on the question, thereby having students connect their math work back to the context.
What are some other ratios that show four times as many boys as girls, or a ratio of boys to girls of 4 to 1?
Have students add each ratio to their table.
# of Boys # of Girls Total # of Players
4 1 5
8 2 10
12 3 15
From the table, we can see that there are four boys for every one girl on the team.
Read the example aloud.
Suppose the ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls on the team is ππ:ππ.
Create a table like the one shown below to show possibilities of the number of boys and girls on the soccer team. Have students copy the table into their student materials.
# of Boys # of Girls Total # of Players 3 2 5

What are some other team compositions where there are three boys for every two girls on the team?
# of Boys # of Girls Total # of Players 3 2 5 6 4 10 9 6 15
I canβt say there are 3 times as many boys as girls. What would my multiplicative value have to be? There are as many boys as girls.
Encourage students to articulate their thoughts, guiding them to say there are 32 as many boys as girls.
Can you visualize 32
as many boys as girls?
Can we make a tape diagram (or bar model) that shows that there are 32
as many boys as girls?
Boys
Girls
Which description makes the relationship easier to visualize: saying the ratio is 3 to 2 or saying there are 3 halves as many boys as girls? There is no right or wrong answer. Have students explain why they picked their choices.
Example 2 (8 minutes): Class Ratios
Discussion
Direct students:
Find the ratio of boys to girls in our class.
Raise your hand when you know: What is the ratio of boys to girls in our class? How can we say this as a multiplicative comparison without using ratios? Raise your hand when you know.
Allow for choral response when all hands are raised.
Write the ratio of number of boys to number of girls in your student materials under Example 2.
Compare your answer with your neighborβs answer. Does everyoneβs ratio look exactly the same?
Allow for discussion of differences in what students wrote. Communicate the following in the discussions:
1. It is ok to use either the colon symbol or the word to between the two numbers of the ratio.
2. The ratio itself does not have units or descriptive words attached.
Raise your hand when you know: What is the ratio of number of girls to number of boys in our class?
Write the ratio in your student materials under Example 2.
Is the ratio of number of girls to number of boys the same as the ratio of number of boys to number of girls? Unless in this case there happens to be an equal number of boys and girls, then no, the ratios are not
the same. Indicate that order matters.

Is this an interesting multiplicative comparison for this class? Is it worth commenting on in our class? If our class had 15 boys and 5 girls, might it be a more interesting observation?
For the exercise below, choose a way for students to indicate that they identify with the first statement (e.g., standing up or raising a hand). After each pair of statements below, have students create a ratio of the number of students who answered yes to the first statement to the number of students who answered yes to the second statement verbally, in writing, or both. Consider following each pair of statements with a discussion of whether it seems like an interesting ratio to discuss. Or alternatively, when all of these examples are finished, ask students which ratio they found most interesting.
Students record a ratio for each of the following examples:
1. You traveled out of state this summer. 2. You did not travel out of state this summer.
3. You have at least one sibling.
4. You are an only child.
5. Your favorite class is math.
6. Your favorite class is not math.

3. Answers will vary. One example is ππ:ππππ.
5. Answers will vary. One example is ππππ:ππππ.
2. Answers will vary. One example is ππππ:ππππ.
4. Answers will vary. One example is ππππ:ππ.
6. Answers will vary. One example is ππππ:ππππ.
Exercise 1 (2 minutes)
Have students look around the classroom to find quantities to compare. Have students create written ratio statements that represent their ratios in one of the summary forms.
Exercise 1
My own ratio compares the number of students wearing jeans to the number of students not wearing jeans.
My ratio is ππππ:ππ.
Exercise 2 (10 minutes)
With a partner, students use words to describe a context that could be represented by each ratio given. Encourage students to be precise about the order in which the quantities are stated (emphasizing that order matters) and about the quantities being compared. That is, instead of saying the ratio of boys to girls, encourage them to say the ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls. After students develop the capacity to be very precise about the quantities in the

ratio, it is appropriate for them to abbreviate their communication in later lessons. Just be sure their abbreviations still accurately convey the meaning of the ratio in the correct order.
Exercise 2
Using words, describe a ratio that represents each ratio below.
a. ππ to ππππ For every one year, there are twelve months.
b. ππππ:ππ For every twelve months, there is one year.
c. ππ to ππ For every two non-school days in a week, there are five school days.
d. ππ to ππ For every five female teachers I have, there are two male teachers.
e. ππππ:ππ For every ten toes, there are two feet.
f. ππ:ππππ For every two problems I can finish, there are ten minutes that pass.
After completion, invite sharing and explanations of the chosen answers.
Point out the difference between ratios, such as, for every one year, there are twelve months, and for every five female teachers I have, there are two male teachers. The first type represents a constant relationship that will remain true as the number of years or months increases, and the second one is somewhat arbitrary and will not remain true if the number of teachers increases.
Closing (5 minutes)
Provide students with this description:
A ratio is an ordered pair of nonnegative numbers, which are not both zero. The ratio is denoted π΄π΄:π΅π΅ or π΄π΄ to π΅π΅ to indicate the order of the numbers. In this specific case, the number π΄π΄ is first, and the number π΅π΅ is second.
What is a ratio? Can you verbally describe a ratio in your own words using this description?
Answers will vary but should include the description that a ratio is an ordered pair of numbers, which are both not zero.
How do we write ratios?
π΄π΄ colon π΅π΅ (π΄π΄:π΅π΅) or π΄π΄ to π΅π΅.
What are two quantities you would love to have in a ratio of 5: 2 but hate to have in a ratio of 2: 5?
Answers will vary. For example, I would love to have a ratio of the number of hours of play time to the number of hours of chores be 5: 2, but I would hate to have a ratio of the number of hours of television time to the number of hours of studying be 2: 5.

Lesson Summary
A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers, which are not both zero.
A ratio is denoted π¨π¨:π©π© to indicate the order of the numbersβthe number π¨π¨ is first and the number π©π© is second.
The order of the numbers is important to the meaning of the ratio. Switching the numbers changes the relationship. The description of the ratio relationship tells us the correct order for the numbers in the ratio.

Student Outcomes
Students reinforce their understanding that a ratio is an ordered pair of nonnegative numbers, which are not both zero. Students continue to learn and use the precise language and notation of ratios (e.g., 3: 2, 3 to 2). Students demonstrate their understanding that the order of the pair of numbers in a ratio matters.
Students create multiple ratios from a context in which more than two quantities are given. Students conceive of real-world contextual situations to match a given ratio.
Classwork
Exercise 1 (5 minutes)
Allow students time to complete the exercise. Students can work in small groups or pairs for the exercise.
Exercise 1
Come up with two examples of ratio relationships that are interesting to you.
1. My brother watches twice as much television as I do. The ratio of number of hours he watches in a day to the number of hours I watch in a day is usually ππ: ππ.
2. For every ππ chores my mom gives my brother, she gives ππ to me. The ratio is ππ:ππ.
Allow students to share by writing the examples on the board, being careful to include some of the verbal clues that indicate a ratio relationship: to, for each, for every.
What are the verbal cues that tell us someone is talking about a ratio relationship?
Exploratory Challenge (30 minutes)
Have students read and study the description of the data in the chart provided in their student materials. Ask students to explain what the chart is about (if possible, without looking back at the description). This strategy encourages students to really internalize the information given as opposed to jumping right into the problem without knowing the pertinent information.
Based on the survey, should the company order more pink fabric or more orange fabric?
What is the ratio of the number of bolts of pink fabric to the number of bolts of orange fabric you think the company should order?
Someone said 5 to 3, and another person said (or my friend said) it would be 3 to 5. Are those the same? Is a ratio of 3 to 5 the same as a ratio of 5 to 3?
Write a statement that describes the ratio relationship of this 3 to 5 ratio that we have been talking about.

Student Outcomes
Students develop an intuitive understanding of equivalent ratios by using tape diagrams to explore possible quantities of each part when given the part-to-part ratio. Students use tape diagrams to solve problems when the part-to-part ratio is given and the value of one of the quantities is given.
Students formalize a definition of equivalent ratios: Two ratios, π΄π΄: π΅π΅ and πΆπΆ: π·π·, are equivalent ratios if there is a nonzero number ππ such that πΆπΆ = πππ΄π΄ and π·π· = πππ΅π΅.

Shanni and Mel are using ribbon to decorate a project in their art class. The ratio of the length of Shanniβs ribbon to the length of Melβs ribbon is ππ: ππ.
Draw a tape diagram to represent this ratio.
What does each unit on the tape diagram represent?
Allow students to discuss; they should conclude that they do not really know yet, but each unit represents some unit that is a length.
What if each unit on the tape diagrams represents 1 inch? What are the lengths of the ribbons? Shanniβs ribbon is 7 inches; Melβs ribbon is 3 inches.
What is the ratio of the lengths of the ribbons?
7: 3 (Make sure that students feel comfortable expressing the ratio itself as simply the pair of numbers 7: 3 without having to add units.)
What if each unit on the tape diagrams represents 2 meters? What are the lengths of the ribbons? Shanniβs ribbon is 14 meters; Melβs ribbon is 6 meters.
How did you find that?
Allow students to verbalize and record using a tape diagram.
What is the ratio of the length of Shanniβs ribbon to the length of Melβs ribbon now? (Students may disagree; some may say it is 14: 6, and others may say it is still 7: 3.)
Allow them to debate and justify their answers. If there is no debate, initiate one: A friend of mine told me the ratio would be (provide the one that no one said, either 7: 3 or 14: 6). Is she right?
What if each unit represents 3 inches? What are the lengths of the ribbons? (Record. Shanniβs ribbon is 21 inches; Melβs ribbon is 9 inches.) Why?
7 times 3 equals 21; 3 times 3 equals 9.
If each of the units represents 3 inches, what is the ratio of the length of Shanniβs ribbon to the length of Melβs ribbon?
Allow for discussion as needed.

Student Outcomes
Given a ratio, students identify equivalent ratios. Students use tape diagrams and the description of equivalent ratios to determine if two ratios are equivalent.
Students relate the nonzero number ππ in the description of equivalent ratios to the tape diagrams they have been using to find equivalent ratios.
Classwork
Example 1 (7 minutes)
Present Example 1 by reading it aloud or asking a student to read it aloud. Then encourage students to discuss what would need to be done. Guide students to a mathematically correct conclusion, and have them summarize their decisions.
Conclude by having students come up with the total number of students that would make Jasmineβs statement true.
Example 1

Letβs look at the ratios we determined in Example 1. We found the ratios 2: 7 and 24: 84. How have we previously determined two sets of ratios to be equivalent?
Each number in the first ratio must be multiplied by the same nonzero number in order to determine the corresponding numbers in the second ratio.
Letβs test these two ratios to see if they are equivalent. Since the corresponding number to 2 in the second ratio is 24, what must we multiply 2 by to find 24? 12
We can determine from this that 12 is the nonzero number ππ that we will multiply each number in the first ratio by to determine the corresponding numbers in the second ratio.
If we multiply 2 by 12, then following the description, we must also multiply 7 by 12. What is the product of 7 Γ 12? 84

How can we use the description of equivalent ratios to find an equivalent ratio?
What do the numbers in the boxes of the tape diagram represent in terms of the ratios? Inside each of the boxes, the nonzero number ππ comes from the value of one unit in the tape diagram.
We can determine that to find an equivalent ratio, the nonzero number ππ must be the same in each box in the tape diagram. This can also be described as constant. If the number ππ is constantly the same number, then the ratios are equivalent. As in Exercise 4, the value of each unit is 9. It is constantly nine. We multiplied 5 by the constant 9 and multiplied 6 by the constant 9 to determine the equivalent ratio.

Lesson Summary
Recall the description:
Two ratios π¨π¨:π©π© and πͺπͺ:π«π« are equivalent ratios if there is a nonzero number ππ such that πͺπͺ = πππ¨π¨ and π«π« = πππ©π©. For example, two ratios are equivalent if they both have values that are equal.
Ratios are equivalent if there is a nonzero number that can be multiplied by both quantities in one ratio to equal the corresponding quantities in the second ratio.
This description can be used to determine whether two ratios are equivalent.

7. Jeanette wants to save money, but she has not been good at it in the past. The ratio of the amount of money in Jeanetteβs savings account to the amount of money in her checking account was ππ:ππ. Because Jeanette is trying to get better at saving money, she moves some money out of her checking account and into her savings account. Now, the ratio of the amount of money in her savings account to the amount of money in her checking account is ππ:ππ. If Jeanette had $ππππππ in her checking account before moving money, how much money does Jeanette have in each account after moving money?
Jeanette has $ππππππ in her savings account and $ππππππ in her checking account after moving money.

1. Shelley compared the number of oak trees to the number of maple trees as part of a study about hardwood trees in a woodlot. She counted ππ maple trees to every ππ oak trees. Later in the year there was a bug problem, and many trees died. New trees were planted to make sure there were the same number of trees as before the bug problem. The new ratio of the number of maple trees to the number of oak trees is ππ:ππππ. After planting new trees, there were ππππππ oak trees. How many more maple trees were in the woodlot before the bug problem than after the bug problem? Explain.
There were ππππ more maple trees before the bug problem than after because there were ππππππ maples trees before the bug problem and ππππ maple trees after the bug problem.
2. The school band is comprised of middle school students and high school students, but it always has the same maximum capacity. Last year the ratio of the number of middle school students to the number of high school students was ππ:ππ. However, this year the ratio of the number of middle school students to the number of high school students changed to ππ:ππ. If there are ππππ middle school students in the band this year, how many fewer high school students are in the band this year compared to last year? Explain.
There are ππ fewer high school students in the band this year when compared to last year because last year there were ππππ high school students in the band, and this year there are only ππππ high school students in the band.

Lesson Summary
For a ratio π¨π¨:π©π©, we are often interested in the associated ratio π©π©:π¨π¨. Further, if π¨π¨ and π©π© can both be measured in the same unit, we are often interested in the associated ratios π¨π¨: (π¨π¨ +π©π©) and π©π©: (π¨π¨+ π©π©).
For example, if Tom caught ππ fish and Kyle caught ππ fish, we can say:
The ratio of the number of fish Tom caught to the number of fish Kyle caught is ππ:ππ.
The ratio of the number of fish Kyle caught to the number of fish Tom caught is ππ:ππ.
The ratio of the number of fish Tom caught to the total number of fish the two boys caught is ππ:ππ.
The ratio of the number of fish Kyle caught to the total number of fish the two boys caught is ππ:ππ.
For the ratio π¨π¨:π©π©, where π©π© β ππ, the value of the ratio is the quotient π¨π¨π©π©
.
For example: For the ratio ππ:ππ, the value of the ratio is ππππ

Note that 1: 2 is not the same ratio as 5: 10, so we do not say they are equal. The ratios are not the same, but their values are equal. Would this always be the case? Would the values of equivalent ratios always be equal?
Answers will vary. Some students may come to the conclusion that the values of equivalent ratios are always equal. However, some students may not be convinced at this point that all equivalent ratios will also have the same value of the ratio.
Exercise 2 (10 minutes) Exercise 2
Here is a theorem: If π¨π¨:π©π© with π©π© β ππ and πͺπͺ:π«π« with π«π« β ππ are equivalent, then they have the same value: π¨π¨π©π©
=πͺπͺπ«π«
.
This is essentially stating that if two ratios are equivalent, then their values are the same (when they have values).
Can you provide any counterexamples to the theorem above?
Allow students to try this in pairs. Observe the progress of students and question studentsβ counterexamples. Ask for further clarification or proof that the two ratios are equivalent but do not have the same value. If students still think they have discovered a counterexample, share the example with the class and discuss why it is not a counterexample.
Ask entire class if anyone thought of a counterexample. If students share examples, have others explain why they are not counterexamples. Then discuss why there are no possible counterexamples to the given theorem. It is important for students to understand that the theorem is always true, so it is not possible to come up with a counterexample.

Allow students 8 minutes to work on this exercise and 10 minutes to present and discuss.
Exercise 3
Taivon is training for a duathlon, which is a race that consists of running and cycling. The cycling leg is longer than the running leg of the race, so while Taivon trains, he rides his bike more than he runs. During training, Taivon runs ππ miles for every ππππ miles he rides his bike.
a. Identify the ratio associated with this problem and find its value.
The ratio of the number of miles he ran to the number of miles he cycled is ππ:ππππ, and the value of the ratio is ππππ
. The ratio of the number of miles he cycled to the number of miles he ran is ππππ:ππ, and the value of the ratio
is ππππ

This is consistent because the ratio of the number of miles he ran to the number of miles he cycled, ππππ:ππππππ,
has the value of ππππ

Student Outcomes
Students understand that a ratio is often used to describe the relationship between the amount of one quantity and the amount of another quantity as in the cases of mixtures or constant rates.
Students understand that a ratio table is a table of equivalent ratios. Students use ratio tables to solve problems.
Lesson Notes The approach of this lesson, and those that follow, is for the teacher to model the use of tables in problem solving. There is no need to engage in an explanation of why or how tables are useful; simply modeling their use in this lesson, examining their structure in the next lesson, and repeatedly using them for problem solving in the remaining lessons of the topic should sufficiently promote tables as a tool for problem solving with collections of equivalent ratios.

NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM 6β’1 Lesson 9
What does this ratio mean? For every 2 cups of water, there are 3 cups of flour.
Every time we have a set of two cups of water, we need to have a set of three cups of flour.
Why is it worded, βfor every 2 cups of water, there are 3 cups of flourβ?
This suggests that we might be doing that action repeatedly, adding 2 cups of water and 3 cups of flour.
Why would I do it more than once?
There are times that batches need to be larger than using 2 cups of water and 3 cups of flour.
(Create a table on the board and label the columns.) Can we list all of the possible recipes for this mixture in order in a table? Letβs start with the ratio that uses the smallest whole numbers. Is there an equivalent ratio that uses smaller whole numbers than the ratio 2 to 3? No
Then letβs make 2 cups of water and 3 cups of flour our first entry.
What would the next possibility be if we were using only whole numbers? I donβt want to skip over any of my options here.
For every 4 cups of water, there are 6 cups of flour.
Continue to guide students to create the table shown.
What is the value of each ratio in the table?
23
Is that what we expected? Should the value of all of these ratios be equal to each other?
Yes
What we have created here is a ratio table, a table in which all of the values of the ratios are equivalent to one another.
What kinds of questions could we answer with the data in our table? Can anyone think of a question we might have had at the start of this problem that this table could help us answer?
Answers will vary, but students should include ratios and associated ratios in their answer.

Is there an equivalent ratio to 700 βΆ 3 that uses smaller whole numbers?
No
So weβll start our table with the entry 3 pages built and $700 earned.
Go ahead and fill in the table without skipping over any possible ratios. Use only whole numbers in the table.
Allow 5 to 10 minutes for each of the next two exercises. If students can only finish one of them, that is alright. Alternatively, if students finish both exercises quickly, extend the lesson by either: (a) allowing students to present their table on the board and asking students if they notice any patterns within the table or (b) presenting a partially completed table on the board and asking students to create their own real-world situation and word problem that could go with it.

Exploratory Challenge (35 minutes) Exploratory Challenge
Imagine that you are making a fruit salad. For every quart of blueberries you add, you would like to put in ππ quarts of strawberries. Create three ratio tables that show the amounts of blueberries and strawberries you would use if you needed to make fruit salad for greater numbers of people.
Table 1 should contain amounts where you have added fewer than ππππ quarts of blueberries to the salad.
Table 2 should contain amounts of blueberries between and including ππππ and ππππ quarts.
Table 3 should contain amounts of blueberries greater than or equal to ππππππ quarts.
Student answers may vary. Here are possible solutions:
The answers to the questions will depend on the variation of the table that students have created.
a. Describe any patterns you see in the tables. Be specific in your descriptions.
The value in the second column is always three times as much as the corresponding value in the first column. In the first table, the entries in the first column increase by ππ, and the entries in the second column increase by ππ. In the second table, the entries in the first column increase by ππππ, and the entries in the second column increase by ππππ. In the third table, the entries in the first column increase by ππππππ, and the entries in the second column increase by ππππππ.

b. How are the amounts of blueberries and strawberries related to each other?
The amount of strawberries is always three times the amount of blueberries. Students could also respond that the ratio of the number of quarts of blueberries to the number of quarts of strawberries is always equivalent to ππ:ππ.
c. How are the values in the Blueberries column related to each other?
Answers will vary. However, students could use the chart paper and write on the table to see the patterns. Most tables should have addition repeating throughout.
d. How are the values in the Strawberries column related to each other?
Answers will vary. However, students could use the chart paper and write on the table to see the patterns. Most tables should have addition repeating throughout.
e. If we know we want to add ππ quarts of blueberries to the fruit salad in Table 1, how can we use the table to help us determine how many strawberries to add?
We could extend our table until we get to ππ in the blueberry column.
f. If we know we used ππππ quarts of blueberries to make our salad, how can we use a ratio table to find out how many quarts of strawberries were used?
We could start with the ratio ππ:ππ that was given in the description and then multiply by ten to get ππππ and ππππ. These would be the first values in our table. Then, we would count up by tens in the Blueberries column and count up by ππππβ²s in the Strawberries column.
Students create the three ratio tables on the student pages. Have index cards ready that say Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3 to hand out to students so that students can place the assigned table on chart paper (15 minutes). After the charts are created, have students focus on how they created the tables and discuss the structure of the tables with a partner or small group. After students have had a chance to work, pull the class together as a whole group for a discussion about the structure of the tables and how the tables are related. Use the questions below to guide the discussion.
How are all three of the tables related?
Each table represents the same ratio of the number of quarts of blueberries to the number of quarts of strawberries, which is 1: 3.
What operation(s) did you use to determine the values for quarts of blueberries and quarts of strawberries?
Adding or multiplying (Have students elaborate where they used each operation.)
How is the number of quarts of strawberries related to the number of quarts of blueberries?
The number of quarts of strawberries is always three times the number of quarts of blueberries, or the number of quarts of blueberries is one-third the number of quarts of strawberries. Students could also respond that the ratio of the number of quarts of blueberries to the number of quarts of strawberries is always equivalent to 1: 3.

Students write directly on the chart paper to check and see whether this is true for every entry in each table. Extend this question to ask students why the rows have the same ratio of the number of quarts of blueberries to the number of quarts of strawberries (or why the rows do not have the same ratio, if a mistake was made) or if the answer makes sense.
How are the amounts of blueberries related to each other in the table? Answers will vary. Students should notice that there is a pattern in the blueberries column. The paper
that each group of students made could be different so how they created the pattern will vary. However, students could use the chart paper and write on the table to see the patterns. Most tables should have addition repeating throughout.
How are the amounts of strawberries related to each other in the table?
Extend this question to further ask students how the two patterns are related to each other.
The change in the amount of blueberries compared to the change in the amount of strawberries is 10 to 30 or 1 to 3, the same ratio we started with.
If we know we want to add 7 quarts of blueberries in Table 1, how can we use the table to help us get the amount of strawberries needed? We could extend our table until we got to seven in the blueberries column.

Students may notice that each of the entries has a different ratio. The problem with this table is that the same amount was added repeatedly to both the Blue column and the Yellow column. Because the first ratio is 1: 5, to get a ratio of 4: 20, we would add three to the Blue column and fifteen to the Yellow column. Adding three to the Blue column and then adding fifteen to the Yellow column creates a ratio of 1: 5, just what we started with.
Closing (5 minutes)
Questions to Review:
In a vertically oriented ratio table, how are the values across the rows related?
The values across the rows form a ratio of π΄π΄:π΅π΅. So, the value of the second column will be determined
by multiplying the value in the first column by π΅π΅π΄π΄
, and the value of the first column will be determined by
multiplying the value in the second column by π΄π΄π΅π΅
.
In a vertically oriented ratio table, how are the values related as we move down a column?
The values in the column depend on how the table was created, but they could be increasing by the same sum or by the same multiple. For example, the values in the first column could be increasing by 5 each time. So, the values could go from 6, 11, 16, 21, 26, etc. or the numbers could be formed by multiplying. In other words, the values could go from 6, 12, 24, 48, etc. if the values were multiplied by 2 each time.
Is there a way to use addition to figure out the next row in a ratio table?
I can use the ratio to help me use addition to get the next row. For example, if the ratio of π΄π΄:π΅π΅ is 2: 5, I can add 2 to the value in the first column and add 5 to the value in the second column to get the next row in the table. I cannot just add the same thing to both the values in the first and second columns.
Is there a way to use multiplication to figure out the next row in a ratio table?
If I use multiplication to get the next row in the table, I need to multiply both the values in the first column and the values in the second column by the same number. So, if the original row is (4, 5), and I want to multiply by 3 to get the next row, I would multiply 4 Γ 3 and 5 Γ 3 to get a row that is (12, 15). Unlike the addition method, I would do the same thing to both the values in the first column and the values in the second column.

Lesson Summary
Ratio tables are constructed in a special way.
Each pair of values in the table will be equivalent to the same ratio.
Repeated addition or multiplication can be used to create a ratio table.
The values in the first column can be multiplied by a constant value to get the values in the second column.

By just adding a certain number to the first entry of a ratio in the first column and adding the same number to the second entry in the second column, the new ratio formed is generally not equivalent to the original ratio. Instead, the numbers added to the entries must be related to the ratio used to make the table. However, if the entries in one column are multiplied by a certain number, multiplying the entries in the other column by the same number creates equivalent ratios.

c. How are the values in each column related to each other?
The values in the columns are increasing using the ratio. Since the ratio of the amount of blue paint to the amount of red paint is ππ:ππ, we have used ππΓ ππ:ππ Γ ππ, or ππ:ππ, and repeatedly added to form the table. ππ was added to the entries in the blue column while ππ was added to the entries in the red column.

Jenna
Maria
Michaela texts the fastest because she texts ππππ words per minute, next is Jenna who texts ππππ words per minute, and last is Maria who texts ππππ words per minute.
While students are discussing the tables, ask the following:
How can we compare the texting rates?
Answers will vary. Students should see that comparing the girlsβ texting rates using the table can be a struggle because there is not a common time for all three tables.
Even though there is not a time that is common to all three tables, is it still possible to use the tables to determine which girl has the fastest texting rate and which has the slowest?
Answers will vary. Sample Response: I could compare the first and third tables by comparing the words at 3 and 9 minutes. I could compare the second and third tables by comparing the words at 6 minutes.
If you used ratios to compare, what do the ratios mean in the context of this problem? The ratios show how many words each person can text in one minute.
How can we use the ratios to help us compare the texting rates of the three girls?
We can find the values of the ratios and then put them in order to see who is fastest and slowest.
Why canβt I just pick the student who has the largest number of words at the end of the table? (This question is meant to help students with a common misconception.)
The times (minutes) are not equal in all tables. The ratio of words to minutes needs to be used to compare the texting rates.
If there were a fourth person, Max, who can text 55 words per minute, how could we create a table to show his texting speed? (This question is to help prepare the class for the next exercise and to review concepts learned in previous lessons.)
The entries in the Minutes row would go up by 1 as the entries in the Words row goes up by 55.
Complete the table so that it shows Max has a texting rate of ππππ words per minute.

Exercise 2 (10 minutes): Making Juice (Comparing Juice to Water)
Students work with a partner or in a small group. Students follow the set of instructions that leads them through examples and asks them questions to help them dig deeper. The questions ask students to compare the ratio of water to juice for a variety of beverages. Students can also find the value of the ratio in order to determine which juice has a higher water-to-juice ratio.
Exercise 2: Making Juice (Comparing Juice to Water)
a. The tables below show the comparison of the amount of water to the amount of juice concentrate (JC) in grape juice made by three different people. Whose juice has the greatest water-to-juice concentrate ratio, and whose juice would taste strongest? Be sure to justify your answer.
Francaβs juice has the greatest amount of water in comparison to juice concentrate, followed by Milton, and then Laredo. Because Laredoβs juice has the least amount of water in comparison to juice concentrate, his juice would taste the strongest.
Put the juices in order from the juice containing the most water to the juice containing the least water.
Franca, Milton, Laredo
Discussing what these ratios mean and what the values of the ratios look like will help give meaning to the problem for students who are struggling. Students should see that the value of the water-to-juice concentrate ratio for Francaβs juice is greater than the value of the water-to-juice concentrate ratio for Laredoβs and Miltonβs juices.
Explain how you used the values in the table to determine the order.
Laredo makes his juice by combining three cups of water for every one cup of juice concentrate.
Franca makes her juice by combining five cups of water for every one cup of juice concentrate.
Milton makes his juice by combining four cups of water for every one cup of juice concentrate.
What ratio was used to create each table?
Laredo ππ:ππ, Franca ππ:ππ, Milton ππ:ππ
Explain how the ratio could help you compare the juices.
Answers will vary.
As you visit the groups or partners as they are working, discuss the third column in the table. Some students may have compared using the total as well.
The next question does not have equal values in the columns for all three tables, so other reasoning will need to be used to solve the problems.

Students may use the ratios to compare the data.
Struggling students, and even average students, may be challenged when comparing these ratios. By finding the value of the ratios, it will be easier for students to compare the data. It should be fairly obvious that Laredo has the juice with the most water compared to juice concentrate. If students use the tables to compare Francaβs ratio of the amount of water to the amount of juice concentrate with Miltonβs ratio of the amount of water to the amount of juice concentrate, they can look for numbers the columns have in common.
b. The next day, each of the three people made juice again, but this time they were making apple juice. Whose juice has the greatest water-to-juice concentrate ratio, and whose juice would taste the strongest? Be sure to justify your answer.
Put the juices in order from the strongest apple taste to the weakest apple taste.
Franca, Milton, Laredo
Explain how you used the values in the table to determine the order.
Answers will vary.
Based on the data in the tables, Milton added more water to his juice than Franca added to her juice. So, the order of the juice with the strongest apple taste to the weakest apple taste is Franca, Milton, Laredo.
Students may use the ratios to get equal amounts of water and then compare the amounts of juice concentrate, or students may use the ratios to get equal amounts of juice concentrate and then compare the amounts of water.
ππ:ππ -------- ππ Γ ππ:ππ Γ ππ ------- ππππ:ππππ
ππ:ππ -------- ππ Γ ππ:ππ Γ ππ ------- ππππ:ππππ
Now we can compare and see that Francaβs juice has more juice concentrate compared to water than Miltonβs juice.
Students also have the option of comparing the values of the ratios to see which value is greater. Then they can
compare 156
to 166
and see that the value of Miltonβs ratio is larger than the value of Francaβs ratio.

c. Max and Sheila are making orange juice. Max has mixed ππππ cups of water with ππ cups of juice concentrate. Sheila has made her juice by mixing ππ cups of water with ππ cups of juice concentrate. Compare the ratios of juice concentrate to water using ratio tables. State which beverage has a higher juice concentrate-to-water ratio.
Max Sheila
Sheila has a higher juice concentrate-to-water ratio because she mixed ππππ cups of juice concentrate to only ππππ cups of water. Maxβs juice would be more watery because he would have ππππ cups of water with the ππππ cups of juice concentrate.
d. Victor is making recipes for smoothies. His first recipe calls for ππ cups of strawberries and ππ cups of other ingredients. His second recipe says that ππ cups of strawberries are combined with ππ cups of other ingredients. Which smoothie recipe has more strawberries compared to other ingredients? Use ratio tables to justify your answer.
Recipe 2 has more strawberries compared to other ingredients.
Recipe 1 Recipe 2
Recipe 2 has more strawberries compared to the other ingredients. When comparing ππ cups of strawberries, there were fewer other ingredients added in Recipe 2 than in Recipe 1.
Students who are struggling can use the value of the ratio to compare the data. However, in parts (c) and (d), struggling students may need to see the comparison of part to whole or get equal amounts of water in part (c) and other in part (d) to make sense of the problem. If students use this comparison, they may want to use multiplication instead of adding to make the table. For example, in part (d), students may want to see how many strawberries would be needed when 63 cups of other ingredients are added.
2: 7 becomes 18 to 63.
3: 9 becomes 21 to 63.
This might be an easier way for students to see that there are more strawberries in Recipe 2.

While students are working, circulate and ask students to share their solving strategies. It is important to also ask students to prove their claims. If a student has simply written that one beverage has a higher amount of water per juice than the other, ask the student to prove or explain how the answer was determined. Students share how they have compared the values in the table.
Closing (10 minutes)
Today we used ratio tables to compare two ratios that were not equivalent and answered questions about which situation would reach a given level first. Can anyone think of another way to compare two different ratios?
The value of a ratio might be useful because then we could determine which ratio had the larger or smaller value.
Exit Ticket (5 minutes)
Lesson Summary
Ratio tables can be used to compare two ratios.
Look for equal amounts in a row or column to compare the second amount associated with it.

ππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ
The values of the tables can also be extended in order to get comparable amounts. Another method would be to compare the values of the ratios by writing the values of the ratios as fractions and then using knowledge of fractions to compare the ratios.
When ratios are given in words, creating a table of equivalent ratios helps in comparing the ratios.

Lesson 12: From Ratio Tables to Double Number Line
Diagrams
Student Outcomes
Students create equivalent ratios using a ratio table and represent these ratios on a double number line diagram.
Students extend and use a double number line diagram to solve ratio problems related to the real world.
Lesson Notes Be aware that double number line diagrams may be unfamiliar to students. Creating and delivering brief opening exercises that demonstrate the use of double number line diagrams, as well as providing fluency activities, such as Rapid Whiteboard Exchanges (RWBE), is highly suggested throughout the rest of this module. Students employ double number line diagrams to understand the equivalence of two related numbers. Generally, double number line diagrams are often chosen when two different units are being compared. An example of a double number line diagram is as follows:
A 12 oz. bottle of sport drink contains 21 g of sugar. If Claudia wants the maximum number of grams of sugar she drinks to be 7 g, how many ounces of the sport drink can she have?
(Note that there are two different units being compared: grams and ounces. They are not equivalent, as one gram is not the same as one ounce. Since this is true, students employ tape diagrams to find equivalence between unlike units).
Students begin by constructing one number line to represent the number of ounces and then constructing another number line directly beneath the original line to represent the number of grams.
Students determine how to label the diagram based on the information in the problem. Since there are 21 g of sugar in 12 oz. of sports drink, the equivalency can be represented directly on the double number line diagram.
This represents that for every 12 oz. of sports drink, there are 21 g of sugar. Students determine the amount of sports drink they can have if they can only drink 7 g of sugar. Students can represent 7 on the double number line diagram by dividing 21 by 3. Since they divided 21 by 3, they must also divide 12 by 3, which results in 4 oz.

Classwork
Exercise 1 (5 minutes)
Recall of prior knowledgeβRatio Tables (See attached ratio cards.)
Each student is given a card with a ratio on it. Students move around the room in search of other students who have ratios that are equivalent to theirs. Students with equivalent ratios form a group and create a ratio table, which contains all of the equivalent ratios. As students present their ratio tables, the student audience determines the accuracy of the groupsβ formations, as well as the accuracy of their tables. Circulate around the room as a facilitator, guiding students who are having trouble. Collect cards and direct students back to their seats once the groups are completed.
Exercise 2 (7 minutes)
A guided whole-group discussion occurs as outlined below. Students are given time to think about and discuss the following questions independently or with their peers and then contribute to the whole-group discussion.
Exercise 2
The amount of sugary beverages Americans consume is a leading health concern. For a given brand of cola, a ππππ π¨π¨π¨π¨. serving of cola contains about ππππ π π of sugar. Complete the ratio table, using the given ratio to find equivalent ratios.
Cola (ounces) ππ ππππ ππππ
Sugar (grams) ππππ ππππ ππππ
Answers may vary but are found by either multiplying or dividing both ππππ and ππππ by the same number.
Exercise 3 (7 minutes)
Exercise 3
A ππ ππ bottle of cola contains approximately ππππ fluid ounces. How many grams of sugar would be in a ππ ππ bottle of the cola? Explain and show how to arrive at the solution.
Cola (ounces) ππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ Sugar (grams) ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππππ ππππππ
Students may use different approaches. Some students may decide to extend their tables but may realize that they do not easily arrive at 34 for the ounces of cola when finding equivalent ratios. After adequate time, have students/groups present their predictions and methods to the class.
When eliciting studentsβ responses, ask probing questions as the opportunity arises (e.g., βSo are you telling me that since 34 oz. is between 30 and 36 oz., the answer will be between 100 and 120 g of sugar?β βIs it closer to 100 or 120? How do you know?β βWill the answer be a whole number? Why or why not?β βCan you express your answer as a mixed number?β).

What are some of the challenges we face when using a table for this type of problem?
34 is not a multiple of 6, and we are counting by 6's for the ounces of cola and by 20's for grams of sugar.
Example 1 (9 minutes)
Whole group instruction continues with a teacher-led discussion (with an illustration) on using a double number line diagram to arrive at the answer for Example 1. This problem requires two different number lines since we are comparing ounces and grams, which are not the same units (1 gram is not equivalent to 1 ounce). Students record the following illustration on the double number line reproducible.
What is the scale we are using on each number line?
6 for cola and 20 for sugar
Show on the cola number line that 34 oz. is 46
, or 23
, of the way between 30 and 36. The answer for grams of sugar will
be 46
, or 23
, of the way between 100 and 120. Since the intervals are by 20, to determine the answer, find 23
of 20 and
add it to 100. Students may choose to use 46
instead of 23
.
Elicit student volunteers to show the math process and work using each of the two fractions. Students should see that the answers will be the same regardless of which fraction was used.

Lesson Summary
A double number line is a representation of a ratio relationship using a pair of parallel number lines. One number line is drawn above the other so that the zeros of each number line are aligned directly with each other. Each ratio in a ratio relationship is represented on the double number line by always plotting the first entry of the ratio on one of the number lines and plotting the second entry on the other number line so that the second entry is aligned with the first entry.
Step 1: ππππ

Lesson 13: From Ratio Tables to Equations Using the Value
of a Ratio
Student Outcomes
Students restate a ratio in terms of its value; for example, if the ratio of length π΄π΄ to length π΅π΅ is 3: 5 (in the
same units), students state that length π΄π΄ is 35
of length π΅π΅, length π΅π΅ is 53
of length π΄π΄, length π΄π΄ is 38
of the total
length, and length π΅π΅ is 58 of the total length.
Students use the value of the ratio to problem-solve by writing and solving equations.
Classwork
Exercise 1β3 (35 minutes)
Exercise 1
Each student is given a pre-made linking cube model consisting of one red cube and three yellow cubes to be used as a model for the scenario below.
Exercise 1
Jorge is mixing a special shade of orange paint. He mixed ππ gallon of red paint with ππ gallons of yellow paint.
Based on this ratio, which of the following statements are true?
ππππ
of a ππ-gallon mix would be yellow paint.
True
Every ππ gallon of yellow paint requires ππππ
gallon of red paint.
True
Every ππ gallon of red paint requires ππ gallons of yellow paint.
True
There is ππ gallon of red paint in a ππ-gallon mix of orange paint.
True
There are ππ gallons of yellow paint in an ππ-gallon mix of orange paint.
False
Use the space below to determine if each statement is true or false.
Scaffolding: Linking cubes should be available for each learner. They give a color-coded manipulative model that makes the abstract story problem tangible. The cubes can be combined to give a concrete model of the chart.

NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM 6β’1 Lesson 13
Allow students to discuss each question with a partner or group. When the class comes back together as a whole group, each group is responsible for explaining to the class one of the statements and whether the group feels the statement is true or false and why. (The first four statements are true while the fifth statement is false. To be made true, the fifth statement should read βThere are 6 gallons of yellow paint in an 8 gallon mix of orange paint.β)
Exercise 2
Exercise 2
Based on the information on red and yellow paint given in Exercise 1, complete the table below.
Red Paint (πΉπΉ) Yellow Paint (ππ)
ππ ππ
ππ ππ ππ ππ ππ ππππ
ππ ππππ
Students should be encouraged to combine their linking cubes with those of a partner to model the ratio given in the second row of the table. Students should find a third partner to model the ratio given in the third row, etc.
Facilitate and lead the discussion (if necessary) to point out that we can extend the table to show total gallons.
Red Paint (πΉπΉ) Yellow Paint (ππ) Relationship
ππ ππ ππ = ππ Γ ππ ππ ππ ππ = ππ Γ ππ ππ ππ ππ = ππ Γ ππ ππ ππππ ππππ = ππΓ ππ ππ ππππ ππππ = ππΓ ππ
Use the table to identify the relationship between two quantities as an intermediate step in creating an equation that models that relationship.
Here is a possible conversation that could be used to help students see the relationships:
What information is given in the table?
The table gives the number of gallons of red paint and the number of gallons of yellow paint.
In what context would someone use this information? This information would be useful to anyone who had a need to paint a surface and also had to mix his
own paint, such as a painting contractor who prefers to mix custom colors for high-end clients.
We need to interpret what this table means. If I use 5 gallons of red paint, how many gallons of yellow paint would I need?
I would need 15 gallons of yellow paint.
How is the amount of yellow paint related to the amount of red paint? The amount of yellow paint is always 3 times as much as the amount of red paint.

Is that true for all of the entries?
Yes
Now imagine that we want to make orange paint to cover an entire wing of our school, and we have 100 gallons of red paint. How could we figure out how many gallons of yellow paint to use?
We could multiply 100 by 3. Now we want to write this as an equation. You have told me that I can take all the values in the first column
and multiply by three to get the values in the second column. When we were given 4 gallons of red paint, we knew we would need 3 β 4 gallons of yellow paint. What if we were given π π gallons of red paint, how many gallons of yellow paint would we need? So, ππ, the number of gallons of yellow paint, would equalβ¦?
3 times π π How would we write this equation?
To get to these steps, students might need a little guidance. Help by pointing out the variables given in the table, and ask them to write what π π must be multiplied by to get ππ.
ππ = 3π π We were trying to find out how much yellow paint we needed given the amount of red paint. Is the formula
related to the value of the ratio of the number of gallons of yellow paint to the number of gallons of red paint?
The ratio of the number of gallons of yellow paint to the number of gallons of red paint is 3: 1; the value
of the ratio is 31
.
What if we wanted an equation to tell us how much red paint to use if we are given the amount of yellow paint? How can we use the amount of yellow paint to determine the amount of red paint needed?
Divide by three or multiply by 13.
What is the ratio of the number of gallons of red paint to the number of gallons of yellow paint?
The ratio is 1: 3 or 1 to 3, and the value of the ratio is 13.
How can I use this information to write the equation?
We would take the ππ-value and divide by 3; in other words, multiply by 13
. So, the equation would be
π π = 13ππ.
Some suggestions for discussion questions:
In this case, the ratio of the number of gallons of red paint to the number of gallons of yellow paint is 1: 3. What if the ratio were changed to 1: 4? What would this mean in the context of our paint problem?
We would use one gallon of red paint for every four gallons of yellow paint.
Can we still use the equation we created earlier? What would the new equation be?
No. The new equation would be ππ = 4 β π π
Scaffolding: The connection to the multiplication table should be elicited: rows 1 and 3 show the relationship in this ratio. Students might also find that equivalent fractions can be seen this way.

Scaffolding:
The connection to the multiplication table should be elicited: columns 1 and 4 show the relationship in this ratio.
How can we use the ratio to write the equation?
There will be 4 times as much yellow paint as there is red paint. The 4 tells us what to multiply the number of gallons of red paint by to find the number of gallons of yellow paint.
What if the ratio were 1: 7? What would the new equation be? ππ = 7 β π π
Exercise 3
Students can try the first question on their own, or discuss the question if students need further instructions with the concept. Otherwise, students start the exercise on their own, in partners, or in small groups.
Jorge now plans to mix red paint and blue paint to create purple paint. The color of purple he has decided to make combines red paint and blue paint in the ratio 4: 1. If Jorge can only purchase paint in one gallon containers, construct a ratio table for all possible combinations for red and blue paint that will give Jorge no more than 25 gallons of purple paint.
Write an equation that will let Jorge calculate the amount of red paint he will need for any given amount of blue paint.
Write an equation that will let Jorge calculate the amount of blue paint he will need for any given amount of red paint.
If Jorge has 24 gallons of red paint, how much blue paint will he have to use to create the desired color of purple?
If Jorge has 24 gallons of blue paint, how much red paint will he have to use to create the desired color of purple?
Allow students to make a table or drawing.
Remember that we sometimes use variables to represent numbers. Letβs use π΅π΅ and π π for the amounts of blue paint and red paint, respectively.
No matter how much blue paint I use, I need 4 times as much red paint. So, for one gallon of blue paint, I need (1 Γ 4) 4 gallons of red paint. That is a ratio of
1: 4. The value of the ratio is 14
.
Where do we see the ratio in the equations? We determine the amount of red paint by multiplying the unknown amount of blue paint by 4. So, for
every 1 gallon of blue paint, we need 4 gallons of red paint. To determine the amount of blue paint, we
need to find 14
of the amount of red paint.

b. Using the same relationship of red to blue from above, create a table that models the relationship of the three colors blue, red, and purple (total) paint. Let ππ represent the number of gallons of blue paint, let πΉπΉ represent the number of gallons of red paint, and let π»π» represent the total number of gallons of (purple) paint. Then write an equation that models the relationship between the blue paint and the total amount of paint, and answer the questions.
Equation: π»π» = ππππ

Lesson 14: From Ratio Tables, Equations, and Double
Number Line Diagrams to Plots on the Coordinate Plane
Student Outcomes
Students associate with each ratio π΄π΄:π΅π΅ the ordered pair (π΄π΄,π΅π΅) and plot it in the π₯π₯βπ¦π¦ coordinate plane. Students represent ratios in ratio tables, equations, and double number line diagrams and then represent
those ratios in the coordinate plane.
Lesson Notes This lesson serves as a means for students to associate ratios with ordered pairs and plot the ordered pairs in the π₯π₯βπ¦π¦ coordinate plane. Students graph collected data on the coordinate plane. Collected data falls within two categories: discrete data and continuous data. Discrete data is a set of data values with unconnected data points and often represents data that is countable and often finite. In this lesson, students represent non-integer data on the coordinate plane using points that are not connected with a ray. Continuous data can represent an unlimited selection of data and include integers. The lesson starts with an example that uses data that is continuous, allowing students to connect the data points with a ray. Students are able to navigate through the graph in order to analyze data, predict values, and find missing values based on the ratio relationship. A student is not required to know the vocabulary of collected data, nor is collected data part of the outcomes of the lesson. The information provided is for reference.
Classwork Representing ratios: Using knowledge from previous lessons in this module, students work together in predetermined groups to complete the table to satisfy the missing values, create a double number line diagram to support the values, and develop an equation to support the values. Pose the following scenario:
Kelli is traveling by train with her soccer team from Yonkers, NY to Morgantown, WV for a tournament. The distance between Yonkers and Morgantown is ππππππ miles. The total trip will take ππ hours. The train schedule is provided below:

Discussion
Elicit prior knowledge of the coordinate plane from Grade 5, where students plotted points using ordered pairs of numbers identified as coordinates, identified π₯π₯- and π¦π¦-axes, and determined how to travel along the axes based upon the ordered pairs.
Display the completed table and coordinate plane. Should materials be available, students can use sticky dots to aid in plotting points on large gridded chart paper.

Have students locate the ordered pair (4, 600) on the coordinate plane.
What does this point represent in the context of distance and time?
The train traveled 600 miles in 4 hours.
Have students locate the ordered pair (7, 500) on the coordinate plane.
How far did the train travel in 7 hours?
The train traveled 500 miles in 7 hours.
Have students locate the ordered pair (15, 750) on the coordinate plane.
How many hours does it take the train to travel 750 miles?
The train has traveled 750 miles in 15 hours.
Elicit student responses to create and then place the ordered pairs from the table on the coordinate plane. Allow students to individually model placement of ordered pairs on the coordinate plane, coming to the instructional area and explaining in detail the reasoning behind their placement of the point.

Student Outcomes
Students associate with each ratio π΄π΄:π΅π΅ the ordered pair (π΄π΄,π΅π΅) and plot it in the π₯π₯βπ¦π¦ coordinate plane. Given a ratio table, students plot the ratios in the plane and observe that they lie on a line through the origin.
Students conclude that the coordinates in the line satisfy π¦π¦ = πππ₯π₯, where ππ is the value of an associated ratio.

Lesson Summary
There are several ways to represent the same collection of equivalent ratios. These include ratio tables, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, equations, and graphs on coordinate planes.
Closing (5 minutes)
Finish any leftover student discussion and presentation.
Describe the advantages and disadvantages of using each of the representations of equivalent ratios: table, double number line diagram, equation, and graph.
Answers will vary but should include the following: tables allow for organization and prediction of unknown values; double number line diagrams help make visible that there are many, even infinitely many, pairs of numbers in the same ratio; an equation is an efficient way to understand the relationship between the first value and the second value and allows us to simply multiply or divide to find any equivalent ratio; a graph is a visual way to immediately see the relationship between two values.

For example, βThis recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.β βWe paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.β
6.RP.A.3 Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, doublenumber line diagrams, or equations. b. Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and
constant speed. For example, if it took 7 hours to mow 4 lawns, then atthat rate, how many lawns could be mowed in 35 hours? At what ratewere lawns being mowed?
d. Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate andtransform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.

Topic C: Unit Rates
133
This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.
In Topic C, students apply their understanding of ratios and the value of a ratio as they come to understand that a ratio relationship of 5 miles to 2 hours corresponds to a rate of 2.5 miles per hour, where the unit rate is the numerical part of the rate, 2.5, and miles per hour is the newly formed unit of measurement of the rate (6.RP.A.2). Throughout Topic C, students continue to make use of the representations and diagrams of Topics A and B as they investigate the concepts of this topic within the context of real-world rate problems. In Lesson 16, students develop their vocabulary and conceptual understanding of rate as they work through and discuss problems that require expressing simple ratios as rates using phrases such as βperβ, βfor eachβ and βfor everyβ. In Lesson 17, students reinforce their understanding as they see problems for the first time where the ratio relationship is expressed in rate form. Students are asked to verbalize and depict the underlying ratio relationship as a collection of equivalent ratios.
In Lesson 18, students generalize the process for finding a rate and define the term unit rate relating it to the value of a ratio. In the remaining lessons of Topic C, students solve unit rate problems involving unit pricing, constant speed, and constant rates of work (6.RP.A.3b). They combine their new understanding of rate to connect and revisit concepts of converting among different-sized standard measurement units (5.MD.A.1). They then expand upon this background as they learn to manipulate and transform units when multiplying and dividing quantities (6.RP.A.3d). In Lessons 19β20, students are conscientious consumers, and comparison shop by comparing unit prices and converting measurement units as needed. For instance, when comparing a 10-ounce bag of salad that sells for $2.25 to a 1-pound bag of salad that retails for $3.50, students recognize that in addition to finding a unit price, they must convert pounds to ounces for an accurate comparison.
In Lessons 21β22, students conduct real-world simulations that generate rates related to speed and work. In doing so, students begin to view math as a tool for solving real-life problems. Topic C concludes with Lesson 23, in which students draw upon their experiences in previous modeling lessons to demonstrate their ability to problem-solve using rates, unit rates, and conversions.

Lesson 16: From Ratios to Rates
Student Outcomes
Students associate a description of a ratio relationship, such as β5 miles for every 2 hours,β to a new quantity, β2.5 miles/hour,β called a rate.
Given a ratio, students precisely identify the associated rate. They identify the unit rate and the rate unit.
Classwork Ratios can be transformed to rates and unit rates.
Example (5 minutes): Introduction to Rates and Unit Rates
Students complete the problem individually. Encourage students to use prior knowledge of equivalent ratios. Discuss answers and methods after a few minutes of student work time.
Example: Introduction to Rates and Unit Rates
Diet cola was on sale last week; it cost $ππππ for every ππ packs of diet cola.
a. How much do ππ packs of diet cola cost?
Packs of Diet Cola ππ ππ Total Cost ππππ ππ
ππ packs of diet cola cost $ππ.ππππ.
b. How much does ππ pack of diet cola cost?
Packs of Diet Cola ππ ππ Total Cost ππ ππ.ππππ
ππ pack of diet cola costs $ππ.ππππ.
After answers have been discussed, use this example to identify the new terms.
Rate: Ratio relationship given by β$10 for every 4 packs of diet colaβ can be written as the rate β2.5 dollars/pack.β
Unit Rate: The unit rate is 2.5 because it is the value of the ratio.
Rate Unit: The rate unit is dollars/pack of diet cola because it costs 2.5 dollars for every 1 pack of diet cola.
Now that the new terms have been introduced, use these vocabulary words throughout the lesson.

Lesson Summary
A rate is a quantity that describes a ratio relationship between two types of quantities.
For example, ππππ miles/hour is a rate that describes a ratio relationship between hours and miles: If an object is traveling at a constant ππππ miles/hour, then after ππ hour it has gone ππππ miles, after ππ hours it has gone ππππ miles, after ππ hours it has gone ππππ miles, and so on.
When a rate is written as a measurement, the unit rate is the measure (i.e., the numerical part of the measurement). For example, when the rate of speed of an object is written as the measurement ππππ miles/hour, the number ππππ is the unit rate. The unit of measurement is miles/hour, which is read as βmiles per hour.β

Discussion
Will everyone have the same exact ratio to represent the given rate? Why or why not? Possible Answer: Not everyoneβs ratios will be exactly the same because there are many different
equivalent ratios that could be used to represent the same rate.
What are some different examples that could be represented in the ratio box?
Answers will vary: All representations represent the same rate: 12: 2, 18: 3, 24: 4.
Will everyone have the same exact unit rate to represent the given rate? Why or why not?
Possible Answer: Everyone will have the same unit rate for two reasons. First, the unit rate is the value of the ratio, and each ratio only has one value. Second, the second quantity of the unit rate is always 1, so the rate will be the same for everyone.
Will everyone have the same exact rate when given a unit rate? Why or why not?
Possible Answer: No, a unit rate can represent more than one rate. A rate of 183
feet/second has a unit
rate of 6 feet/second.

Student Outcomes
Students solve problems by analyzing different unit rates given in tables, equations, and graphs.
Materials Matching activity cut and prepared for groups
Classwork Analyze tables, graphs, and equations in order to compare rates.
Examples 1β2 (10 minutes): Creating Tables from Equations
Letβs fill in the labels for each table as shown in the completed table below. If we have 1 cup of blue paint, how many cups of red paint would we have? (Model where these values go on
the table.)
If we have 2 cups of blue paint, how many cups of red paint would we have? (Model where these values go on the table.)
Examples 1β2: Creating Tables from Equations
1. The ratio of cups of blue paint to cups of red paint is ππ:ππ, which means for every cup of blue paint, there are two cups of red paint. In this case, the equation would be red = ππ Γ blue, or ππ = ππππ, where ππ represents the amount of blue paint and ππ represents the amount of red paint. Make a table of values.
Cups of Blue Paint ππ ππ ππ ππ
Cups of Red Paint ππ ππ ππ ππ
Follow this line of questioning for a few more values.
Examine the table, and identify the unit rate. 2
Where do you see this value in the equation?
The unit rate is represented in the equation as the value by which the cups of blue paint are being multiplied.

a. At what rate does each biker travel? Explain how you arrived at your answer.
Bryan: Hours
Miles
Bryan travels at a rate of ππππ miles per hour. The double number line had to be split in ππ equal sections. Thatβs how I got ππππ; (ππππ + ππππ + ππππ) = ππππ.
ShaNiece travels at ππππ miles per hour. I know this by looking at the point (ππ,ππππ) on the graph.
The ππ represents the number of hours, and the ππππ represents the number of miles.
b. ShaNiece wants to win the bike race. Make a new graph to show the speed ShaNiece would have to ride her bike in order to beat Bryan.

Problem Set Sample Solutions
Victor was having a hard time deciding which new vehicle he should buy. He decided to make the final decision based on the gas efficiency of each car. A car that is more gas efficient gets more miles per gallon of gas. When he asked the manager at each car dealership for the gas mileage data, he received two different representations, which are shown below.
Vehicle 1: Legend Vehicle 2: Supreme
Gallons of Gas ππ ππ ππππ
Number of Miles ππππ ππππππ ππππππ
1. If Victor based his decision only on gas efficiency, which car should he buy? Provide support for your answer.
Victor should buy the Legend because it gets ππππ miles per
gallon of gas, and the Supreme only gets ππππππππ miles per gallon. Therefore, the Legend is more gas efficient.
2. After comparing the Legend and the Supreme, Victor saw an advertisement for a third vehicle, the Lunar. The manager said that the Lunar can travel about ππππππ miles on a tank of gas. If the gas tank can hold ππππ gallons of gas, is the Lunar Victorβs best option? Why or why not?
The Lunar is not a better option than the Legend because the Lunar only gets ππππ miles per gallon, and the Legend gets ππππ miles per gallon. Therefore, the Legend is still the best option.

Student Outcomes
Students use rates between measurements to convert measurement in one unit to measurement in another unit. They manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.
Lesson Notes Prior to this lesson, a measurement center should be made available to students. By allowing all students to handle all the various items, they gain a real sense of each measure and its relationship to the others.
Measurement Center Materials: rulers (centimeter and inches), meter sticks, yard sticks, measuring tapes; kilogram, gram, and milligram masses; liter box, liter bottle, or liter graduated cylinder, eyedropper (for milliliter); ounce and pound weights; cup, pint, quart, and gallon containers
Materials: copies of conversion charts, calculators
Vocabulary: length, mass, weight, capacity, metric system, U.S. customary system, kilo-, deci-, centi-, milli-
Conversion tables contain ratios that can be used to convert units of length, weight, or capacity. You must multiply the given number by the ratio that compares the two units.
Classwork It may be helpful to copy the vocabulary terms on one side of a handout and the conversion charts on the other. Distribute these to each student. Pair the students for the first two examples.
Opening Exercise (5 minutes) Opening Exercise

Measurement Units
Student Outcomes
Students decontextualize a given speed situation, representing symbolically the quantities involved with the formula distance = rate β time.
Materials Stopwatches 50-foot measured course Calculators
Lesson Notes
Vocabulary: distance, rate, time, ππ = ππ β π‘π‘, ππ = πππ‘π‘
Classwork If an object is moving at a constant rate of speed for a certain amount of time, it is possible to find how far the object went by multiplying the rate and the time. In mathematical language, we say, ππππππππππππππππ = π«π«ππππππ β ππππππππ.
Exploratory Challenge
Students will make measurements of distance and time during this lesson and will calculate speed. When using a stopwatch, the teacher can decide whether to round to the nearest second or tenth of a second. If desired, multiple trials can be measured and results averaged.

Are these the same values?
Allow for discussion.
The first representation states that for every 60 seconds, there is 1 minute. Is that what the second representation states? I read this as β60 seconds per minute.β Knowing what we learned previously in Lessons 1 and 2, βperβ and βfor everyβ are verbal representations of a ratio, so they mean the same thing.
Example 1 (15 minutes)
Measure out a 50-foot course in the hallway (or shorter in the classroom). Have student volunteers use a stopwatch to measure the time it takes to have others walk the distance. Also, ask a fast runner to run the course as fast as he or she can.
I wonder how fast you were moving. In this exercise, we know the distance (in feet) and time (in seconds), and we must find the speed, which is the rate of distance traveled per unit of time. This will be expressed in feet per second for this activity.
Many people like to use the ππ = ππ β π‘π‘ formula, substitute in the values for rate and time, and then multiply.
Would you agree that ππ = πππ‘π‘?
Remind students that 12 = 3 β 4, 3 = 124 , and 4 = 12
3 are all related and can be an anchor in relating ππ = ππ β π‘π‘ and
ππ = πππ‘π‘ . Substitute the values to test if needed.
Ask students to substitute the runnerβs distance and time into the equation and solve for the rate of speed. Also, substitute the runnerβs time and distance into the equation to find his or her rate of speed.
Example 1
Walker: Substitute the walkerβs distance and time into the equation and solve for the rate of speed.
ππππππππππππππππ = π«π«ππππππ β ππππππππ
π π = ππ β ππ
Hint: Consider the units that you want to end up with. If you want to end up with the rate (feet/second), then divide the distance (feet) by time (seconds).
Runner: Substitute the runnerβs time and distance into the equation to find the rate of speed.
ππππππππππππππππ = π«π«ππππππ β ππππππππ
π π = ππ β ππ

It might be important to discuss the desired precision of each measurement and the limitations to precision inherent in the tools used (e.g., 50-foot race course measured to the nearest inch and time measured to the nearest hundredth of a second on the stopwatch). Measurements are, by their nature, never exact. Also, when arriving at an answer, it should be expressed with a degree of precision appropriate for the context of the problem.

Lesson 23: Problem Solving Using Rates, Unit Rates, and
Conversions
Student Outcomes
Students solve constant rate work problems by calculating and comparing unit rates.
Materials Calculators
Classwork
If work is being done at a constant rate by one person, and at a different constant rate by another person, both rates can be converted to their unit rates and then compared directly.
βWorkβ can include jobs done in a certain time period, rates of running or swimming, etc.
Example 1 (10 minutes): Fresh-Cut Grass
In the last lesson, we learned about constant speed problems. Today we will be learning about constant rate work problems. Think for a moment about what a constant rate work problem might be.
Allow time for speculation and sharing of possible interpretations of what the lesson title might mean. Student responses should be summarized by the following:
Constant rate work problems let us compare two unit rates to see which situation is faster or slower.
In Lesson 18, we found a rate by dividing two quantities. Recall how to do this. To find a unit rate, divide the numerator by the denominator.
Did it matter which quantity was in the numerator and which quantity was in the denominator?
Yes. To find the unit rate, it is important to have specific quantities in the numerator and denominator based on the rate unit.
Did the two quantities have to be two different units? Yes
Suppose that on a Saturday morning you can cut 3 lawns in 5 hours, and your friend can cut 5 lawns in 8 hours. Your friend claims he is working faster than you. Who is cutting lawns at a faster rate? How do you find out?
Divide the numerator by the denominator to find the unit rate.

Again, does it matter which quantity is represented in the numerator and which quantity is represented in the denominator?
Yes. To find the amount of lawns per hour, or the rate unit of lawns
hour, the amount of lawns cut must be
represented in the numerator, and the amount of time in hours must be represented in the denominator.
What is 3 divided by 5? 0.6
How should you label the problem?
The same way it is presented. Here βlawnsβ remains in the numerator, and βhoursβ remains in the denominator.
How should the unit rate and rate unit look when it is written completely?
35
lawns
hours=0.61
lawns
hour
How should it be read?
If I can cut 3 lawns in 5 hours, that equals 35
lawns in one hour. If a calculator is used, that will be a unit
rate of six-tenths. The rate unit is lawn per hour.
What is the unit rate of your friendβs lawn cutting?
My friend is cutting 58
lawns in an hour.

Example 2 (9 minutes): Restaurant Advertising
Next, suppose you own a restaurant. You want to do some advertising, so you hire 2 students to deliver take-out menus around town. One student, Darla, delivers 350 menus in 2 hours, and another student, Drew, delivers 510 menus in 3 hours. You promise a $10 bonus to the fastest worker since time is money in the restaurant business. Who gets the bonus?
How should the unit rates and the rate units look when they are written completely?

Compare the unit rates for each student. Who works faster at the task and gets the bonus cash?
Darlaβs unit rate is 1751
menus
hour and Drewβs unit rate is
1701
menus
hour. Since Darla is able to deliver 5 more
menus an hour than Drew, she should get the bonus.
Will the unit labels in the numerator and denominator always match in the work rates we are comparing?
Yes.

What happens if they do not match and one is inverted?
It will be difficult to compare the rates. We would have to say 175 menus would be delivered per hour by Darla, and it would take an hour for Drew to deliver 170 menus. Mixing up the units makes the explanations awkward.
Will time always be in the denominator?
Yes
Do you always divide the numerator by the denominator to find the unit rate?

Do we have to convert one time unit?
Yes What will happen if we do not convert one time unit so that they match?
We cannot compare the rates. It is not easy to tell which is faster: 70 words per minute or 1.25 words per second.
Does it matter which one you change?
No. Either change 90 seconds to 1.5 minutes or change 3 minutes to 180 seconds, as long as the rate units are the same when you are finished.
Can you choose the one that makes the problem easier for you?
Yes
Is there an advantage in choosing one method over the other?
Changing seconds to minutes avoids repeating decimals. Looking back on our work so far what is puzzling you? What questions do you have?

Describe how this type of problem is similar to unit pricing problems.
Unit pricing problems use division and so do work rate problems.
Describe how work problems are different than unit price problems.
Unit price problems always have cost in the numerator; work rate problems always have time in the denominator.
Closing (5 minutes)
Rate problems, including constant rate problems, always count or measure something happening per unit of time. The time is always in the denominator.
Sometimes the units of time in the denominators of the rates being compared are not the same. One must be converted to the other before calculating the unit rate of each.

In the first lesson of Topic D, students are introduced to percent and then find percent of a quantity as a rate
per 100. Students understand that ππ percent of a quantity has the same value as ππ100
of that quantity. In Lessons 24 and 25, students express a fraction as a percent and find a percent of a quantity in real-world contexts. In Lessons 26β28, students learn to express ratio using the language of percent and to solve percent problems selecting from familiar representations, such as tape diagrams and double number line diagrams or combinations of both (6.RP.A.3c).

Lesson 24: Percent and Rates per 100
Student Outcomes
Students understand that percents are related to part-to-whole ratios and rates where the whole is 100. Students model percents and write a percent as a fraction over 100 or a decimal to the hundredths place.
Classwork
Example 1 (5 minutes)
Begin class with a discussion to gather prior knowledge and to show a relationship to real-world applications.
Imagine that you are shopping. You want to purchase an item for $100, but today it is 20% off. What does this mean?
It means that $20 out of every $100 dollars will be subtracted from the total.
How can this situation be modeled?
We could use a tape diagram that represents $100 divided into ten sections of $10. Two of the sections represent the discount, and eight of the sections represent the amount paid for the item. It could also be shown on a 10 Γ 10 grid, where 20 of the squares represent the discount, and 80 squares represent the amount paid.
How are percent problems related to the types of problems we have been working with involving ratios and rates? Answers will vary depending on prior knowledge. Some students may see that 20% of $100 is $20 off.
Other students may see that we are trying to find part of a whole.
Use the following website on a projector to visually explore percents in a 10 Γ 10 grid model.
http://nlvm.usu.edu/en/nav/frames_asid_333_g_3_t_1.html?from category_g_3_t_1.html
Click the explore button on the website to be able to show 20%. This provides students with the visual for making the connection that 20% means 20 out of 100.
What does this grid show?
100 blocks
How many are shaded in?
20 blocks How many are not shaded in?
80 blocks
How can we use this model to help us think through 20% off of $100?
From the grid, I can see that when I save 20%, I am paying 80% of the original value.

Now they can see that since each block represents $1, they would be saving the 20 and spending the 80 when a $100 item is 20% off the original price.
Here is an example of what the website will look like:
If time allows, add more grids to model percents greater than 100% so that students further build an understanding.

In this example, the teacher can discuss how 0.01 is related to 1100
and 1%. There are many examples that could be
used to represent this percent in the last question. Students should list several examples.
Exercises 3β6 (15 minutes)
In predetermined pairs or groups, students solve the remaining problems.
Circulate around the room. Students may have varying answers for several questions in the practice. There is more than one possible answer for several questions to spark conversation between pairs or small groups.
For example, the second 10 Γ 10 grid used two different colors, so students could compare colored to total: light gray to total, dark gray to total. In addition, when they are asked to describe the different scenarios, some may use part-to-part ratios while others may use part-to-whole. This is a good time for a discussion on how part-to-part can lead to part-to-whole. In addition, it is important to remember that percents are out of a total 100, so consider asking students which form of the ratio is most helpful for getting a percent.
A percent is just another way to show the part-to-whole ratio for each picture.

Lesson Summary
One percent is the number ππππππππ
and is written as ππ%.
Percentages can be used as rates. For example, ππππ% of a quantity means ππππππππππ
times the quantity.
We can create models of percents. One example would be to shade a ππππ Γ ππππ grid. Each square in a ππππΓ ππππ grid represents ππ% or ππ.ππππ.

At this point, students are given a chance to share some of their ideas on percent. Help to mold the discussion so students see that percentages are based on part-to-whole ratios.
50% means 50 out of 100, which is equivalent to 1 out of 2 that would have to be cars. In other words, half of the vehicles would have to be cars.
During the discussion, explore the three following questions:
How is the fraction of cars related to the percent?
ππππ is equal to
ππππππππππ
. Since percents are out of ππππππ, the two are equivalent.
Use a model to prove that the fraction and percent are equivalent.
ππππ
= ππππ%
What other fractions or decimals also represent ππππ%?
ππππ
=ππππππ
=ππππππ
=ππππππππ
=ππππππππ
= ππ.ππ

Example 2 (10 minutes)
Example 2
A survey was taken that asked participants whether or not they were happy with their job. An overall score was given. ππππππ of the participants were unhappy while ππππππ of the participants were happy with their job. Give a part-to-whole fraction for comparing happy participants to the whole. Then write a part-to-whole fraction of the unhappy participants to the whole. What percent were happy with their job, and what percent were unhappy with their job?
Create a model to justify your answer.
Have students write a fraction to represent the number of people that are happy with their job compared to the total.
number of people who said they were happy(part)total number of people questioned (whole)
=7001000
=70100
= 70%, Students should also see that 30% were unhappy.
Why is it helpful to write this fraction with a denominator of 100?
Percent refers to the number per 100.
How would we represent this as a decimal? 0.70 = 0.7
How can you model this question using a double number line?
Students can simply give a verbal description of the number line because it is so similar to the tape diagram.
The same reasoning could be used to create double number line graphs with percents on one line and the values being used on the other.
The two questions are meant to help show students that fractions with denominators other than 100 can also represent a percent. Before letting students work on the exercises, it is important to review how to identify the percent that a fraction represents.
We can scale up or scale down to get 100 as a denominator.
What if the denominator is not a multiple or a factor of 100? What would we do now? For example, what if I
ate 18
of a pizza and wanted to know what percent of the pizza I ate. How would I calculate this?
I can change a fraction to a decimal by dividing.

Exercises (20 minutes): Group/Partner/Independent Practice
Students work on the practice problems where they are asked to convert from fraction to decimal to percent. In addition, they are asked to use models to help prove some of their answers. Consider having 10 Γ 10 grids ready for some students to use for these questions. A reproducible has been provided for you.
Exercise 1
Renita claims that a score of ππππ% means that she answered ππππ of the problems correctly. She drew the following picture
to support her claim.:
Is Renita correct?
Yes
Why or why not?
ππππ
=ππππππππ
=ππππππππππ
β ππππ%
How could you change Renitaβs picture to make it easier for Renita to see why she is correct or incorrect?
I could change her picture so that there is a percent scale down the right side showing ππππ%, ππππ%, etc. I could also change the picture so that there are ten strips with eight shaded.
Exercise 2
Use the diagram to answer the following questions.
ππππ% is what fraction of the whole quantity?
ππππ
ππππ is what percent of the whole quantity?

ππ is what percent of the whole quantity?
ππ = ππππ This would be ππππππ%.
Exercise 3
Maria completed ππππ of her workday. Create a model that represents what percent of the workday Maria has worked.
She has completed ππππ% of the workday.
What percent of her workday does she have left?
ππππ%
How does your model prove that your answer is correct?
My model shows that ππππ
= ππππ% and that the ππππ she has left is the same as ππππ%.
Exercise 4
Matthew completed ππππ
of his workday. What decimal would also describe the portion of the workday he has finished?
ππ Γ· ππ = ππ.ππππππ or ππππ
of ππππππ% = ππππ.ππ%
How can you use the decimal to get the percent of the workday Matthew has completed?
ππππ is the same as ππ.ππππππ. This is ππππππ thousandths or
ππππππππ,ππππππ
. If I divide both the numerator and denominator by ten, I can
see that ππππππππππππππ
=ππππ.ππππππππ

Before students solve Exercise 3, have students go back to the previous examples and write the percent and fraction as a
decimal. Then have them work with fractions, like 58
.
Some students may have difficulty writing a decimal given as thousandths as a fraction.

Lesson Summary
Fractions, decimals, and percentages are all related.
To change a fraction to a percentage, you can scale up or scale down so that ππππππ is in the denominator.
Example:
ππππππ
= ππ Γ ππππππ Γ ππ
=ππππππππππ
= ππππ%
There may be times when it is more beneficial to convert a fraction to a percent by first writing the fraction in decimal form.
Example:
ππππ
= ππ.ππππππ = ππππ.ππ hundredths = ππππ.ππ%
Models, like tape diagrams and number lines, can also be used to model the relationships.
The diagram shows that ππππππππ
= ππππ%.

Student Outcomes
Students find the percent of a quantity. Given a part and the percent, students solve problems involving finding the whole.
Classwork
Example 1 (5 minutes)
Example 1
Five of the ππππ girls on Alden Middle Schoolβs soccer team are seventh-grade students. Find the percentage of seventh graders on the team. Show two different ways of solving for the answer. One of the methods must include a diagram or picture model.
Method 1:
Method 2:
ππππππ
= ππππ
= ππππππππππ
= ππππ%
Students take time to make their own diagram or model and discuss with a partner. Students review the work they completed in Lesson 25. If they make a tape diagram, they begin by deciding to divide the tape diagram into 5 equal rectangles. Each rectangle represents 5 girls. From there they divide the 100% into 5 equal sections.
If time permits, students share the model they chose and explain why it did or did not help them solve the problem.
Students need to come to the conclusion that 525
=20100
, which is the same as 20%.
Note: Students who are struggling may need help figuring out which model to use and how to divide up the diagram. Help them think through the different options. Would it make sense to count by 5βs, 10βs, 20βs, 25βs, etc.?

How did your solving method differ with each problem?
Solutions will vary. A possible answer may include: When solving for the part, I need to find the missing number in the numerator. When solving for the whole, I solve for the denominator. When I solve for the percent, I need to find the numerator when the denominator is ππππππ.
What are you trying to find in each example?
Part, whole, percent How are the problems different from each other?
Answers will vary.
How are the problems alike?
Answers will vary.
Take time to discuss the clues in each problem including the placement of the word βof.β The word βofβ lets students know which piece of information is the whole amount compared to the part. In the first example, 60% of 300 tells us that we are looking for part of 300. Therefore, 300 is the whole. In the second example where 60% of 500 is 300, 300 is the part, and 500 is the whole. In the third example, 60 out of 300 tells us that now, 60 is the part, and 300 is the whole. Structure the conversation around the part-whole relationship.

Jane paid $ππππ for an item after she received a ππππ% discount. Janeβs friend says this means that the original price of the item was $ππππ.
a. How do you think Janeβs friend arrived at this amount?
Janeβs friend found that ππππ% of ππππ is ππ. Then she added $ππ to the sale price: ππππ + ππ = ππππ. Then she determined that the original amount was $ππππ.
b. Is her friend correct? Why or why not?
Janeβs friend was incorrect. Because Jane saved ππππ%, she paid ππππ% of the original amount, so that means that ππππ is ππππ% of the original amount.

Student Outcomes
Students find the percent of a quantity. Given a part and the percent, students solve problems involving finding the whole.
Classwork
Exploratory Challenges (25 minutes): Group/Partner
Students explore what it means to have 10%. Students recognize the equivalence between 10%, 10100
, and 110
and use
this relationship to quickly calculate 10% of different quantities. Being able to calculate 10% of a quantity can be an efficient tool or strategy when calculating other percents.
Exploratory Challenge 1
Claim: To find ππππ% of a number, all you need to do is move the decimal to the left once.
Use at least one model to solve each problem (e.g., tape diagram, table, double number line diagram, ππππ Γ ππππ grid).
a. Make a prediction. Do you think the claim is true or false? Explain why.
Answers will vary. One could think the claim is true because ππππ% as a fraction is ππππππ
. The same thing
happens when one divides by ππππ or multiplies by ππππππ
. A student may think the claim is false because it
depends on what whole amount represents the number from which the percentage is taken.

=ππππππππππ
There are ππππππ pages in the book.
j. Using the solutions to the problems above, what conclusions can you make about the claim?
The claim is true. When I find ππππ% of a number, I am really finding ππππππ
of the amount or dividing by ππππ,
which is the same as what occurred when I moved the decimal point in the number one place to the left.
Using the solutions to the problems above, what conclusions can you make about the claim? Answers will vary. However, students are required to share what is mathematically happening when
the decimal is moved over once to help make connections to why it works. Students may relate back to using place value and regrouping with the concept of decimals.
Students read a claim that two separate discounts give the same results as the sum of the two discounts taken off the original price at the same time. Students need to conclude that they are not the same because the second discount is being taken off a new amount not the original price.
Exploratory Challenge 2
Claim: If an item is already on sale, and then there is another discount taken off the sale price, this is the same as taking the sum of the two discounts off the original price.
Use at least one model to solve each problem (e.g., tape diagram, table, double number line diagram, ππππ Γ ππππ grid).
a. Make a prediction. Do you think the claim is true or false? _____________ Explain.
The answer is false. They will be different because when two discounts are taken off, the second discount is taken off a new amount.
b. Sam purchased ππ games for $ππππππ after a discount of ππππ%. What was the original price?
ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ ππππ
Sale price: $ππππππ Discount: $ππππ
$ππππππ is the original price.
c. If Sam had used a ππππ% off coupon and opened a frequent shopper discount membership to save ππππ%, would the games still have a total of $ππππππ?
ππππ% = ππππππππππ = ππ
ππππ $ππππππΓ ππππππ
=$ππππππππππ
= $ππππ saved. The price after the coupon is $ππππππ.
ππππ% = ππππππππππ = ππ
ππππ $ππππππΓ ππππππ = $ππππππ
ππππ = $ππππ saved. The price after the coupon and discount membership is $ππππππ.
No, the games would now total $ππππππ.

Algebra I β’ Module 1
Relationships Between Quantities and
Reasoning with Equations and Their Graphs
OVERVIEW By the end of Grade 8, students have learned to solve linear equations in one variable and have applied graphical and algebraic methods to analyze and solve systems of linear equations in two variables. Now, students are introduced to nonlinear equations and their graphs. Students formalize their understanding of equivalent algebraic expressions and begin their study of polynomial expressions. Further, they learn that there are some actions that, when applied to the expressions on both sides of an equal sign, will not result in an equation with the same solution set as the original equation. Finally, they encounter problems that induce the full modeling cycle, as it is described in the Common Core Learning Standards for Mathematics.
In Topic A, students explore the main functions that they will work with in Algebra I: linear, quadratic, and exponential. The goal is to introduce students to these functions by having them make graphs of situations (usually based upon time) in which the functions naturally arise (A-CED.A.2). As they graph, they reason abstractly and quantitatively as well as choose and interpret units to solve problems related to the graphs they create (N-Q.A.1, N-Q.A.2, N-Q.A.3).
In middle school, students applied the properties of operations to add, subtract, factor, and expand expressions (6.EE.A.3, 6.EE.A.4, 7.EE.A.1, 8.EE.A.1). Now, in Topic B, students use the structure of expressions to define what it means for two algebraic expressions to be equivalent. In doing so, they discern that the commutative, associative, and distributive properties help link each of the expressions in the collection together, even if the expressions look very different themselves (A-SSE.A.2). They learn the definition of a polynomial expression and build fluency in identifying and generating polynomial expressions as well as adding, subtracting, and multiplying polynomial expressions (A-APR.A.1). The Mid-Module Assessment follows Topic B.
Throughout middle school, students practice the process of solving linear equations (6.EE.B.5, 6.EE.B.7, 7.EE.B.4, 8.EE.C.7) and systems of linear equations (8.EE.C.8). Now, in Topic C, instead of just solving equations, they formalize descriptions of what they learned before (variable, solution sets, etc.) and are able to explain, justify, and evaluate their reasoning as they strategize methods for solving linear and nonlinear equations (A-REI.A.1, A-REI.B.3, A-CED.A.4). Students take their experience solving systems of linear equations further as they prove the validity of the addition method, learn a formal definition for the graph of an equation and use it to explain the reasoning of solving systems graphically, and represent the solution to systems of linear inequalities graphically (A-CED.A.3, A-REI.C.5, A-REI.C.6, A-REI.D.10, A-REI.D.12).
In Topic D, students are formally introduced to the modeling cycle (see page 61 of the CCLS) through problems that can be solved by creating equations and inequalities in one variable, systems of equations, and graphing (N-Q.A.1, A-SSE.A.1, A-CED.A.1, A-CED.A.2, A-REI.B.3). The End-of-Module Assessment follows Topic D.

Focus Standards
Reason quantitatively and use units to solve problems.
N-Q.A.1 Use units as a way to understand problems and to guide the solution of multi-step problems; choose and interpret units consistently in formulas; choose and interpret the scale and the origin in graphs and data displays.
β
N-Q.A.22 Define appropriate quantities for the purpose of descriptive modeling.β
N-Q.A.3 Choose a level of accuracy appropriate to limitations on measurement when reporting quantities.
β
Interpret the structure of expressions.
A-SSE.A.1 Interpret expressions that represent a quantity in terms of its context.β
a. Interpret parts of an expression, such as terms, factors, and coefficients.
b. Interpret complicated expressions by viewing one or more of their parts as a single entity. For example, interpret π(1 + π)π as the product of π and a factor not depending on π.
A-SSE.A.2 Use the structure of an expression to identify ways to rewrite it. For example, see π₯4 β π¦4 as (π₯2)2 β (π¦2)2, thus recognizing it as a difference of squares that can be factored as (π₯2 β π¦2)(π₯2 + π¦2).
Perform arithmetic operations on polynomials.
A-APR.A.1 Understand that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply polynomials.
Create equations that describe numbers or relationships.
A-CED.A.13 Create equations and inequalities in one variable and use them to solve problems. Include equations arising from linear and quadratic functions, and simple rational and exponential functions.β
A-CED.A.2 Create equations in two or more variables to represent relationships between quantities; graph equations on coordinate axes with labels and scales.β
A-CED.A.3 Represent constraints by equations or inequalities, and by systems of equations and/or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or non-viable options in a modeling context. For example, represent inequalities describing nutritional and cost constraints on combinations of different foods.β
2This standard will be assessed in Algebra I by ensuring that some modeling tasks (involving Algebra I content or securely held content
from Grades 6-8) require the student to create a quantity of interest in the situation being described. 3In Algebra I, tasks are limited to linear, quadratic, or exponential equations with integer exponents.

A-CED.A.4 Rearrange formulas to highlight a quantity of interest, using the same reasoning as in solving equations. For example, rearrange Ohmβs law π = πΌπ to highlight resistance π .β
Understand solving equations as a process of reasoning and explain the reasoning.
A-REI.A.1 Explain each step in solving a simple equation as following from the equality of numbers asserted at the previous step, starting from the assumption that the original equation has a solution. Construct a viable argument to justify a solution method.
Solve equations and inequalities in one variable.
A-REI.B.3 Solve linear equations and inequalities in one variable, including equations with coefficients represented by letters.
Solve systems of equations.
A-REI.C.5 Prove that, given a system of two equations in two variables, replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other produces a system with the same solutions.
A-REI.C.64 Solve systems of linear equations exactly and approximately (e.g., with graphs), focusing on pairs of linear equations in two variables.
Represent and solve equations and inequalities graphically.
A-REI.D.10 Understand that the graph of an equation in two variables is the set of all its solutions plotted in the coordinate plane, often forming a curve (which could be a line).
A-REI.D.12 Graph the solutions to a linear inequality in two variables as a half-plane (excluding the boundary in the case of a strict inequality), and graph the solution set to a system of linear inequalities in two variables as the intersection of the corresponding half-planes.
4Tasks have a real-world context. In Algebra I, tasks have hallmarks of modeling as a mathematical practice (less defined tasks, more
of the modeling cycle, etc.).

Foundational Standards
Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to the system of rational numbers.
6.NS.C.7 Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.
a. Interpret statements of inequality as statements about the relative position of two numbers on a number line diagram. For example, interpret β3 > β7 as a statement that β3 is located to the right of β7 on a number line oriented from left to right.
b. Write, interpret, and explain statements of order for rational numbers in real-world contexts. For example, write β3Β°πΆ > β7Β°πΆ to express the fact that β3Β°πΆ is warmer than β7Β°πΆ.
Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.
6.EE.A.3 Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3(2 + π₯) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3π₯; apply the distributive property to the expression 24π₯ + 18π¦ to produce the equivalent expression 6(4π₯ + 3π¦); apply properties of operations to π¦ + π¦ + π¦ to produce the equivalent expression 3π¦.
6.EE.A.4 Identify when two expressions are equivalent (i.e., when the two expressions name the same number regardless of which value is substituted into them). For example, the expressions π¦ + π¦ + π¦ and 3π¦ are equivalent because they name the same number regardless of which number π¦ stands for.
Reason about and solve one-variable equations and inequalities.
6.EE.B.5 Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question: which values from a specified set, if any, make the equation or inequality true? Use substitution to determine whether a given number in a specified set makes an equation or inequality true.
6.EE.B.6 Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set.
6.EE.B.7 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form π₯ + π = π and ππ₯ = π for cases in which π, π and π₯ are all nonnegative rational numbers.
6.EE.B.8 Write an inequality of the form π₯ > π or π₯ < π to represent a constraint or condition in a real-world or mathematical problem. Recognize that inequalities of the form π₯ > π or π₯ < π have infinitely many solutions; represent solutions of such inequalities on number line diagrams.

Use properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions.
7.EE.A.1 Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients.
7.EE.A.2 Understand that rewriting an expression in different forms in a problem context can shed light on the problem and how the quantities in it are related. For example, π + 0.05π = 1.05π means that βincrease by 5%β is the same as βmultiply by 1.05.β
Solve real-life and mathematical problems using numerical and algebraic expressions and equations.
7.EE.B.3 Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies. For example: If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50, for a new salary of $27.50. If you want to place a towel bar 9 3/4 inches long in the center of a door that is 27 1/2 inches wide, you will need to place the bar about 9 inches from each edge; this estimate can be used as a check on the exact computation.
7.EE.B.4 Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities.
a. Solve word problems leading to equations of the form ππ₯ + π = π and π(π₯ + π) = π, where π, π, and π are specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms fluently. Compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying the sequence of the operations used in each approach. For example, the perimeter of a rectangle is 54 cm. Its length is 6 cm. What is its width?
b. Solve word problems leading to inequalities of the form ππ₯ + π > π or ππ₯ + π < π, where π, π, and π are specific rational numbers. Graph the solution set of the inequality and interpret it in the context of the problem. For example: As a salesperson, you are paid $50 per week plus $3 per sale. This week you want your pay to be at least $100. Write an inequality for the number of sales you need to make, and describe the solutions.
Work with radicals and integer exponents.
8.EE.A.1 Know and apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent numerical expressions. For example, 32 Γ 3β5 = 3β3 = 1/33 = 1/27.
8.EE.A.2 Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form π₯2 = π and π₯3 = π, where π is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that β2 is irrational.

Analyze and solve linear equations and pairs of simultaneous linear equations.
8.EE.C.7 Solve linear equations in one variable.
a. Give examples of linear equations in one variable with one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solutions. Show which of these possibilities is the case by successively transforming the given equation into simpler forms, until an equivalent equation of the form π₯ = π, π = π, or π = π results (where π and π are different numbers).
b. Solve linear equations with rational number coefficients, including equations whose solutions require expanding expressions using the distributive property and collecting like terms.
8.EE.C.8 Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.
a. Understand that solutions to a system of two linear equations in two variables correspond to points of intersection of their graphs, because points of intersection satisfy both equations simultaneously.
b. Solve systems of two linear equations in two variables algebraically, and estimate solutions by graphing the equations. Solve simple cases by inspection. For example, 3π₯ + 2π¦ = 5 and 3π₯ + 2π¦ = 6 have no solution because 3π₯ + 2π¦ cannot simultaneously be 5 and 6.
c. Solve real-world and mathematical problems leading to two linear equations in two variables. For example, given coordinates for two pairs of points, determine whether the line through the first pair of points intersects the line through the second pair.
Focus Standards for Mathematical Practice MP.1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Students are presented with
problems that require them to try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem to gain better understanding of the problem.
MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Students analyze graphs of non-constant rate measurements and reason from the shape of the graphs to infer what quantities are being displayed and consider possible units to represent those quantities.
MP.3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. Students reason about solving equations using if-then moves based on equivalent expressions and properties of equality and inequality. They analyze when an if-then move is not reversible.
MP.4 Model with mathematics. Students have numerous opportunities in this module to solve problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace from modeling bacteria growth to understanding the federal progressive income tax system.
MP.6 Attend to precision. Students formalize descriptions of what they learned before (variables, solution sets, numerical expressions, algebraic expressions, etc.) as they build equivalent expressions and solve equations. Students analyze solution sets of equations to determine processes (e.g., squaring both sides of an equation) that might lead to a solution set that differs from that of the original equation.

MP.7 Look for and make use of structure. Students reason with and about collections of equivalent expressions to see how all the expressions in the collection are linked together through the properties of operations. They discern patterns in sequences of solving equation problems that reveal structures in the equations themselves: 2π₯ + 4 = 10, 2(π₯ β 3) + 4 = 10, 2(3π₯ β 4) + 4 = 10, etc.
MP.8 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. After solving many linear equations in one variable (e.g., 3π₯ + 5 = 8π₯ β 17), students look for general methods for solving a generic linear equation in one variable by replacing the numbers with letters: ππ₯ + π =ππ₯ + π. They have opportunities to pay close attention to calculations involving the properties of operations, properties of equality, and properties of inequality as they find equivalent expressions and solve equations, noting common ways to solve different types of equations.
Terminology
New or Recently Introduced Terms
Algebraic Expression (An algebraic expression is either: (1) a numerical symbol or a variable symbol or (2) the result of placing previously generated algebraic expressions into the two blanks of one of the four operators ((__) + (__), (__) β (__), (__) Γ (__), (__) Γ· (__)) or into the base blank of an exponentiation with an exponent that is a rational number.)

Preparing to Teach a Module Preparation of lessons will be more effective and efficient if there has been an adequate analysis of the module first. Each module in A Story of Functions can be compared to a chapter in a book. How is the module moving the plot, the mathematics, forward? What new learning is taking place? How are the topics and objectives building on one another? The following is a suggested process for preparing to teach a module. Step 1: Get a preview of the plot.
A: Read the Table of Contents. At a high level, what is the plot of the module? How does the story develop across the topics?
B: Preview the moduleβs Exit Tickets to see the trajectory of the moduleβs mathematics and the nature of the work students are expected to be able to do.
Note: When studying a PDF file, enter βExit Ticketβ into the search feature to navigate from one Exit Ticket to the next.
Step 2: Dig into the details.
A: Dig into a careful reading of the Module Overview. While reading the narrative, liberally reference the lessons and Topic Overviews to clarify the meaning of the textβthe lessons demonstrate the strategies, show how to use the models, clarify vocabulary, and build understanding of concepts.
B: Having thoroughly investigated the Module Overview, read through the Student Outcomes of each lesson (in order) to further discern the plot of the module. How do the topics flow and tell a coherent story? How do the outcomes move students to new understandings?
Step 3: Summarize the story.
Complete the Mid- and End-of-Module Assessments. Use the strategies and models presented in the module to explain the thinking involved. Again, liberally reference the lessons to anticipate how students who are learning with the curriculum might respond.

Preparing to Teach a Lesson A three-step process is suggested to prepare a lesson. It is understood that at times teachers may need to make adjustments (customizations) to lessons to fit the time constraints and unique needs of their students. The recommended planning process is outlined below. Note: The ladder of Step 2 is a metaphor for the teaching sequence. The sequence can be seen not only at the macro level in the role that this lesson plays in the overall story, but also at the lesson level, where each rung in the ladder represents the next step in understanding or the next skill needed to reach the objective. To reach the objective, or the top of the ladder, all students must be able to access the first rung and each successive rung. Step 1: Discern the plot.
A: Briefly review the moduleβs Table of Contents, recalling the overall story of the module and analyzing the role of this lesson in the module.
B: Read the Topic Overview related to the lesson, and then review the Student Outcome(s) and Exit Ticket of each lesson in the topic.
C: Review the assessment following the topic, keeping in mind that assessments can be found midway through the module and at the end of the module.
Step 2: Find the ladder.
A: Work through the lesson, answering and completing each question, example, exercise, and challenge.
B: Analyze and write notes on the new complexities or new concepts introduced with each question or problem posed; these notes on the sequence of new complexities and concepts are the rungs of the ladder.
C: Anticipate where students might struggle, and write a note about the potential cause of the struggle.
D: Answer the Closing questions, always anticipating how students will respond.
Step 3: Hone the lesson.
Lessons may need to be customized if the class period is not long enough to do all of what is presented and/or if students lack prerequisite skills and understanding to move through the entire lesson in the time allotted. A suggestion for customizing the lesson is to first decide upon and designate each question, example, exercise, or challenge as either βMust Doβ or βCould Do.β
A: Select βMust Doβ dialogue, questions, and problems that meet the Student Outcome(s) while still providing a coherent experience for students; reference the ladder. The expectation should be that the majority of the class will be able to complete the βMust Doβ portions of the lesson within the allocated time. While choosing the βMust Doβ portions of the lesson, keep in mind the need for a balance of dialogue and conceptual questioning, application problems, and abstract problems, and a balance between students using pictorial/graphical representations and abstract representations. Highlight dialogue to be included in the delivery of instruction so that students have a chance to articulate and consolidate understanding as they move through the lesson.

B: βMust Doβ portions might also include remedial work as necessary for the whole class, a small group, or individual students. Depending on the anticipated difficulties, the remedial work might take on different forms as suggested in the chart below.
Anticipated Difficulty βMust Doβ Remedial Problem Suggestion
The first problem of the lesson is too challenging.
Write a short sequence of problems on the board that provides a ladder to Problem 1. Direct students to complete those first problems to empower them to begin the lesson.
There is too big of a jump in complexity between two problems.
Provide a problem or set of problems that bridge student understanding from one problem to the next.
Students lack fluency or foundational skills necessary for the lesson.
Before beginning the lesson, do a quick, engaging fluency exercise.6 Before beginning any fluency activity for the first time, assess that students have conceptual understanding of the problems in the set and that they are poised for success with the easiest problem in the set.
More work is needed at the concrete or pictorial level.
Provide manipulatives or the opportunity to draw solution strategies.
More work is needed at the abstract level.
Add a set of abstract problems to be completed toward the end of the lesson.
C: βCould Doβ problems are for students who work with greater fluency and understanding and can, therefore, complete more work within a given time frame.
D: At times, a particularly complex problem might be designated as a βChallenge!β problem to provide to advanced students. Consider creating the opportunity for students to share their βChallenge!β solutions with the class at a weekly session or on video.
E: If the lesson is customized, be sure to carefully select Closing questions that reflect such decisions, and adjust the Exit Ticket if necessary.

some x-values, then 2(left side) = 2(right side) will be true for exactly the same x-

solution set.

Let π and π be real numbers. 2.
a. If π = 42 + π is true, then which is greater: π or π or are you not able to tell? Explain how you know your choice is correct.
c must be greater because c is always 42 more than d.
b. If π = 42 β π is true, then which is greater: π or π or are you not able to tell? Explain how you know your choice is correct.
There is no way to tell. We only know that the sum of c and d is 42. If d were 10, c
would be 32 and, therefore, greater than d. But if d were 40, c would be 2 and,
therefore, less than d.
If π < 0 and π > π, circle the expression that is greater: 3.
π(π β π) or π(π β π)
Use the properties of inequalities to explain your choice.
Since c > b,
it follows that 0 > b β c,
and since a < 0, a is negative,
and the product of two negatives will be
a positive.
Since c > b,
it follows that c β b > 0.
so (c β b) is positive. And since a is
negative, the product of
a β (c β b) < a β (b β c).

b. In part (a), the expression (3π₯ + 4) + 4 is equivalent to the expression 3π₯ + 8. What is the definition of equivalent algebraic expressions? Describe why changing an expression on one side of an equation to an equivalent expression leaves the solution set unchanged?
Algebraic expressions are equivalent if (possibly repeated) use of the distributive,
associative, and commutative properties and/or the properties of rational exponents can
be applied to one expression to convert it to the other expression.
When two expressions are equivalent, assigning the same value to x in both expressions
will give an equivalent numerical expression, which then evaluates to the same number.
Therefore, changing the expression to something equivalent will not change the truth
value of the equation once values are assigned to x.
c. When we square both sides of the original equation, we get the following new equation:
(3π₯ + 4)2 = (5π₯ β 4)2. Show that 4 is still a solution to the new equation. Show that 0 is also a solution to the new equation but is not a solution to the original equation. Write a sentence that describes how the solution set to an equation may change when both sides of the equation are squared.
(3 β 4 + 4)2 = (5 β 4 β 4)2 gives 162 = 166, which is true.
(3 β 0 + 4)2 =(5 β 0 β 4)2 gives 42=(β4)2, which is true.
But, (3 β 0 + 4) = (5 β 0 β 4) gives 4 = β 4, which is false.
When both sides are squared, you might introduce new numbers to the solution set
because statements like 4 = β 4 are false, but statements like 42 = (β4)2 are true.

d. When we replace π₯ by π₯2 in the original equation, we get the following new equation:
3π₯2 + 4 = 5π₯2 β 4.
Use the fact that the solution set to the original equation is {4} to find the solution set to this new equation.
Since the original equation 3x + 4 = 5x β 4 was true when x = 4, the new equation
3x2 + 4 = 5x2 β 4 should be true when x2 = 4. And, x2 = 4 when x = 2, so the solution set
to the new equation is {β2,2}.

(3,4), and the lines are parallel; therefore, they coincide. There are infinite solutions.
The solution set is all the points on the line. Any other nonzero value of m would create
a system with the only solution of (3,4).

The local theater in Jamieβs home town has a maximum capacity of 160 people. Jamie shared with Venus 12.the following graph and said that the shaded region represented all the possible combinations of adult and child tickets that could be sold for one show.
a. Venus objected and said there was more than one reason that Jamieβs thinking was flawed. What
reasons could Venus be thinking of?
1. The graph implies that the number of tickets sold could be a fractional amount, but
really it only makes sense to sell whole number tickets. x and y must be whole
numbers.
2. The graph also shows that negative ticket amounts could be sold, which does not
make sense.

b. Use equations, inequalities, graphs, and/or words to describe for Jamie the set of all possible combinations of adult and child tickets that could be sold for one show.
The system would be {a + c β€ 160
a β₯ 0c β₯ 0
where a and c are whole numbers.
c. The theater charges $9 for each adult ticket and $6 for each child ticket. The theater sold 144 tickets for the first showing of the new release. The total money collected from ticket sales for that show was $1,164. Write a system of equations that could be used to find the number of child tickets and the number of adult tickets sold, and solve the system algebraically. Summarize your findings using the context of the problem.
a: the number of adult tickets sold (must be a whole number)
c: the number of child tickets sold (must be a whole number)
{9a + 6c = 1164
a + c = 144
9a + 6c = 1164
-6a β 6c = -864
3a = 300
a = 100, c = 44
In all, 100 adult tickets and 44 child tickets were sold.
